Information:

I’ve been making my Thinkways series for over almost three decades. I’ve just found it almost therapeutic to make these drawings; a combination of chaos and calmness. These complex overlapping road-like lines are created without planning and without erasing. These drawings are often made in graphite or ink on paper, or when I make the Thinkways large-scale on walls, they become Wall Drawings. Sometimes I’ve made copper etchings or other prints and foil prints. In rare instances I’ve made an animated film. Make sure you check out my banana. The name “Thinkways” purely comes from the fact that while I create these drawings, I'm thinking. I just let my mind wonder. This is the second animated exploration of a Thinkway drawing. The first one I did was only 18 drawings. This one is comprised of 1,050 individual hand-drawn drawings done on vellum. Each was then scanned in and assembled as a film digitally.

Below is the original final drawing.
