Scrapbook

This is the last 50 images that have caught my eye. I collect them using Savee, a Pinterest alternative.

Each image is copyright of its respective owner. Reasonable effort has been made to retain the source information, although this has not always been possible. Image sources are provided (if known).

An image displaying the word 'Peg' repeated three times, with each instance showcasing the variable font axes interpolating from 0 to 1000. The transitions move from sharp to smooth edges, with puckered details in between. Source
