Below is a jpg captured from my interpretation of the 13-9-65 artwork.

This is the program running in real-time:

While working on this piece I went through many different methods of creating horizontal lines that I found to be accurate and appealing. Then, I proceeding the adding in the vertical lines and ellipses. Looking back, I wish I had considered the overall artwork earlier, because I found it difficult to work the vertical lines into the method I had chosen.

Overall, this project was a good jump back into coding.

Here is the code
