Home Grown

Its been too long since my last post and I finally have something to share. My latest series of wallpapers all use components from a recent project.

The project in question was an entry for a competition which involved designing a piece of art that would be suitable for the Auckland phone book (you can stop laughing now). This means that the design would need to feature images that Aucklanders can easily identify with.

Happily, I already had reference photos of two Auckland landmarks ready to make into illustrations. The background of my entry is, of course a fractal and it will be interesting to see how it is received by the judges. In the meantime, below are my "off cuts" - faithful readers of this blog may recall that I'm "into" digital recycling.

Aotearoa Dreaming



Harbour Bridge



Sky Tower



Click on the above images to go to the associated flickr pages and feel free to download the wallpaper version. These will of course feature on my personal blog at some point in the future.

So here's the challenge: Take something from your surroundings and make your own "home grown" image.
