Though the overall scene created by syukri seems simple and playful, it is actually quite complex when you consider that almost the entirety of the design was done on what appears to be an isometric grid to give the piece additional depth and perspective. Finally, the composition that the robot is creating – the sunflower painting that has a bit of a human element to it thanks to its imperfect replication of the flower – is the final element that makes the robot seem friendly if not almost human. Keeping these elements grounded in approachability are the more innocent aspects of the piece – including the traditional “palette” where the robot is getting its colors from to paint with, as well as little canvas and easel set up in front of the robot. The peripheral devices surrounding the robot give it tons of character and additional abstract-realism, including the computer interface kiosk with the Inkscape logo that appears to be the control center, as well as the surveillance camera pointed at the sunflower that acts as the “eyes” for the robot – made more obvious by the light beam coming from the camera lens itself. This, in my opinion, fits with the theme of Inskcape and its open source community of developers and users. Using wood instead of steel not only makes the robot more approachable, in my opinion, but also makes it seem more like something you’d see a startup or community create rather than a large robotics company.

Rather than going with a traditional “steel” colored robot, the artist has instead decided to use what appears to be wood for the robot’s body with blacked-out metal for the robotic skeleton as well as the chords that control the moving parts of the machine. There are many elements making his piece work – starting with the great choice of color palette. For starters, the overall composition is imaginative as it incorporates the use of a presumptively autonomous painting robot creating a still-life portrait of a nearby potted sunflower. This entry – Art Bot by fauzan syukri – is incredible in so many ways.

INKSCAPE TUTORIALS PLANET SOFTWARE
The work submitted this time around is truly incredible, and is a testament not only to how far free graphic design software has come, but also how diverse the free software community is both in terms of the nationalities of those submitting entries and the style of artwork displayed in those entries.īelow is a showcase of what I think are the stand-out entries from the Inkscape 1.1 About Screen Contest, and what I love about each entry showcased.

On February 21st, 2021, Inkscape wrapped up its About Screen Contest for its upcoming version, Inkscape 1.1, seeing 83 qualified submissions from vector designers across the Inkscape community. Rayes’s work accomplished two major things for the Inkscape program – it made the free software more intriguing to a wider audience by showcasing what the program could accomplish, while also raising the bar for future Inkscape About Screen Contests. The last contest for the major Inkscape 1.0 release was clearly won by artist Bayu Rizaldhan Rayes’s entry, “Island of Creativity,” which clearly stood out above the other designs with its unique concept and successful cohesion of myriad, disparate design elements.
