Inktober 2026 Topics
Inktober starts next month, and this year’s prompt list is out! Very excited to get started on this year’s topics.
Generative Art with Context Free
I’ve got a small repo, ContextFree, that I keep coming back to whenever I want the specific kind of fun that comes from writing a handful of lines of code and having something unexpectedly pretty fall out the other end. It’s a collection of Context Free Art scripts — a tiny grammar for describing images as recursive drawing rules — plus a Docker image wrapping the cfdg renderer so I can run them without installing anything locally.
Blacksmith Day 2023
Had a great day on my blacksmith course making a Ram’s head fire poker at Adrian Wood’s Forge, I would highly recommend it.
I went back for a second course after making a dragon coat hook last year, course which was part of my 50th birthday presents.

I can’t believe he passed away 9 years ago now, still miss him lots.
