#PlotterTwitter showcased really impressive AxiDraw artwork overall, where each artist shared unique styles and approaches towards creating intricate linework. For me, I noticed that after looking through many of the AxiDraw drawings, the line harsh and defined line quality becomes a bit repetitive, where the drawings become stiff, and have that static quality. I became more interested in works that moved beyond spinograph variations and moved past the machine-like quality.
Jakub Antolak's "Figura 63" was one which I thought stood out from the other AxiDraws. The texture, due to the variation in line-width and density between strokes, feels organic, almost like a close-up view of muscle fibers or a microscopic view of cells. I think a lot of this is caused by the intricate cross hatching with a super-fine pen, that when overlapped, creates the illusion of "thicker" and "thinner" strokes. I think it's also interesting how the piece is symmetrical, where the image is mirrored across the diagonal line that runs from the upper right corner to the lower left corner. I wasn't able to notice that the image was symmetrical at all at first glance, where the organic nature and the crisp linework allows your eyes to become lost in its form.
