Alchemy | An open drawing project
12 weeks ago by gdw
alchemy |’alkemē
Figurative: a process by which paradoxical results are achieved or incompatible elements combined with no obvious rational explanation
Alchemy is an open drawing project aimed at exploring how we can sketch, draw, and create on computers in new ways. Alchemy isn’t software for creating finished artwork, but rather a sketching environment that focuses on the absolute initial stage of the creation process. Experimental in nature, Alchemy lets you brainstorm visually to explore an expanded range of ideas and possibilities in a serendipitous way.

Photographer and Author at Large - Duncan Davidson
september 2011 by gdw
When people ask me what I do, it’s hard to answer concisely. I’m a professional photographer, accomplished software developer, published author, and small business owner. I obviously don’t believe in doing just one thing and I love learning. I guess that makes me a polymath and an autodidact, to use fancy words.
