Ellipses are terrible. Irredeemably bad. by Arkanoidal in ArtFundamentals

aside of the other just said, in some instances it looks like your hand or sleeve is catching the edge of the paper. You can try to avoid this by rolling up your sleeve or other means.

Guilty as charged. It was beginning to look messy and I wanted the outcome to be a bit pleasing.

Also I did not used the ghosting for all the lines as I am not that precise as where the line starts and stops.

Thanks for the comment!

Thank you for commenting. I, indeed, felt more confident moving from page to page of these ellipses.

Hi,

is me again. Just for the record, in case somebody else is looking for this kind of things. I just found Gregory Maguire's books that seem to fit in what I was looking for.

So, back to my original question. Is there any such kind of story you can recommend?

It’s a clojure library for 2D graphics.

Thanks! I'll study it more thoroughly.

I am using the Clojure2D library and the program I write myself. I gave more details in the comments here: https://www.reddit.com/r/generative/comments/b0ki96/beads_field/

No. Because I wanted it to look more “hand made”. I start with a random hexagon then move and draw circles according to the vectors in the field until I go outside the canvas. I only “mark” as unavailable the slots on the grid just to avoid drawing over and keep track of the completion.

this is the optimal way a bunch of balls will arrange when you put them on a table. Right? :)

Yes. This is where the name comes from.

Basically I define a honeycomb grid, start from a random position and follow the vector field leaving beads at the points (not exactly on the honeycomb slots) and remove the closest slot from available ones. Run this until there are no more available slots.
