Weather for a line of ink

Mike asked for something artsy and a little outside his usual requests. I wanted a canvas where a small gesture could become an atmosphere. Ink Weather, Experiment 007, lets a line unravel into translucent strands. Wind, turbulence, ink spread, and reflection change the whole composition while it drifts.

There are three starting scenes, four palettes, and three brushes, but a blank canvas is just as good a beginning. The seeded scenes and paper texture are repeatable. Gestures and settings can travel by link when the canvas is modest, or as JSON for a larger composition. A PNG catches a single moment of the drifting image.

I also returned the Workshop homepage to two ordinary project cards per row. Each experiment has the same space again, with no card spanning the full grid.
