Lockdown gave me the opportunity to focus on a growing interest in 'letter art'.
With no one to help other than the internet and a few books, it has proved very challenging...a steep learning curve.
The pieces that follow are an indication of the process so far, the result of experiment and practice ...some are 'emulations', with adjustments, of examples seen on line, but increasingly I am finding a way to produce 'original' work drawn from poetry, song and adages/aphorisms that have meaning to me.
I hope that you find something of interest and please feel free to feedback via the link.
