This is my beautiful forever friend, Ryan (@ryanantonior). I put a call out on Instagram for anyone willing to share photos with me for my challenge this week (my camera roll is 92% cats) and Ryan was the first to volunteer his photos (below). He’s a super talented photographer and, having just spent a year in Berlin, has a wealth of stunning content to choose from. However, I chose a photo from deep in his feed, from a trip him and I took to Guatemala a few years ago, of Semuc Champey - which translates to “Where the River Hides” - and this lovely photo of his face. It was a great excuse in creating this simple little sketch to dwell on the face and reminisce on a memory of someone I hold so dear.

  var tileCountX = mouseX / 20;
  var tileCountY = mouseY / 20;
  var stepX = width / tileCountX;
  var stepY = height / tileCountY;
  image(img1, 100, 0, 620, 800)
  for (var gridY = 0; gridY < height; gridY += stepY + mouseY) {
    for (var gridX = 0; gridX < width; gridX += stepX + 200) {
      image(img2, gridX / 2, gridY * 2, stepX, stepY);
    }
