Just finished this one up. I’m still figuring out how to get a consistent background between the outer area and the small spaces between the lines. They seem to be getting more and more textured as I go.
The background is dark gray, you’re not imagining it. I had to go lighter than my usual black because of the black stripes on the ends. And I could not go too light with the gray background because of the gray stripes.
Did I mention that I have been volunteering at the Dennis R Neill Equality Center, here in Tulsa, for over a year now? They have an annual juried art exhibition that I have participated in a couple of times in the past years. I am making these, well, for fun, but also in hopes of having them in this year’s show.
