339 of 365 is made of tiny circles #Inkscape #design

I was inspired to do this by a picture I saw on ffffound — I started with a silhouette, made a small circle, then used Inkscape’s spraypaint tool to fill in the silhouette with clones of the small circle. Because the spraypaint tool is kind of messy and spontaneous even with the tightest settings, most of the work here was moving wayward circles back into the edges of the silhouette, as well as resizing and placing circles to follow the contour of it.
