10.5 × 10.5 inches.

saturn enters at the right edge, its rings sweeping down across the diagonal — the near band loosening into open circles, the far band tightening into pure dot. every value in this drawing comes from how close the marks sit to one another. no wash, no gray, no fill. tens of thousands of dots laid down one at a time, no shortcut and no undo.
i made this in a season when i needed something slow. stippling asks for the kind of patience healing asks for — one small mark, then another, until a form appears that you could never have drawn all at once. the black circles scattered through the field read as moons or as openings, depending on how long you look.
i hope it gives you somewhere quiet to rest your eyes.
arrives unframed. ships flat between rigid boards. a white mat and glazing suit it well.
