Had a great time at the 2026 Bridges conference in Galway. My paper is available at the Bridges Archive and my art can be seen in the online gallery. #BridgesMathArt

The blue curve is made from a single continuous curve. It does not have any exact symmetry. And yet it gives a great impression of symmetry. Paper in progress.

Wisteria is ready for visitors! Drop by Santa Clara University for fragrance and beauty. Love working with students here about problem-solving skills. They are headed to make the world better.

A gentle sunset to bring February to a close. And I made no purchase to obtain it!

Pretty sunset to get February off to a good start. When I got home, the moon and Venus were flirting behind the clouds.

Love these! Years ago I wondered if my wallpaper algorithms would have any application in Magic Eye. Glad you found this way!

Another image in the Christmas spirit. A rhapsody of tangency, with some generative fill from Photoshop AI. Not exactly sure what I mean by this, but it speaks to me.

In my opinion, now is about the time for Christmas decorations. Here’s one of mine, made for a Christmas card with some help from AI in the form of generative fill and lots of fiddling. Merry Christmas!

Five circles with stained glass disks nestled inside.
