A sketchbook — 2026
Ida Belle,
playing with gen art.
A small, ongoing sketchbook of algorithmic drawings — quiet botanical studies coaxed out of code, one seed at a time. Nothing impossible here, just a lot of curiosity and a plotter's patience.
Sketch №1
A little forest, redrawn.
A tangle of trees, undergrowth and stray leaves — every branch tip drawn one at a time. Refresh for another patch of woods.

Sketch №2
An ammonite, remembered.
A hyper-real fossil study — nacre, sediment and a spiral that has been waiting a very long time to be looked at.

Sketch №3
Satellites of nowhere.
Made-up flyovers of planets that don't exist — coastlines, weather and colour bands invented by noise, hand-shaded with code.

Sketch №4
Deep field, invented.
Nebulae, dust lanes and spiked stars in the manner of our best telescopes — every photon here is arithmetic.
