Always Plotting Something…

Oh circuitree, oh circuitree - happy holidays!

Set of 16 unique pen plotter drawings on Fabriano Black Black 300gsm card, A6 105x148mm, various metallic Gelly Roll pens. Drawing time about 2.5 hours for the lot.

Getting interested in KiCad and designing printed circuit board was one thing that distracted me from more pen plotting this year. Of course these patterns are just random walks mimicking the real thing and not functionally correct circuits. Much more could be done to make them more realistic, but this is close enough to be aesthetically pleasing, perhaps?
