This goes good with coffee…

I got a bit antsy about my typographical experiments and thought I would share my first sketch as a desktop. For this image, I took a regular stencil sheet and sprinkled some flour through it over some black paper. A topography builds as there is more flour in some places. Powdery mountains form that you can’t see as well from above, but the loose texture is beautiful.
