Well, here you are dear girl....we are having an Assistant Pastor soon and within the Presbyterian Church after they go through Union College they have to be Licensed......this was my gift to ours and I also gave one to another man who we know well....so recently did two of these and of course Shaz you will realise that I've managed to do the gilding a la PVA....the main text is in Foundational Hand which is very plain...not like Shaz' ornate letters which she has hand drawn. Endless patience to do those. Hope you like - lettering is not 100% but I was in a hurry...when am I not?
Oh, wow--it's fabulous! I would LOVE to be able to do that! I did do some calligraphy many years ago but there's more to it than just mechanical accuracy--you have to be a real artist to have the layout come out so perfectly. Maybe I should take a class...
ReplyDeleteAh that is really beautiful dear Joyce! and you should not be so very negative about yourself am back to doing my text but you would not read about had another three orders when delivered the last lot on Wed. they were repeats so no brain strain but life in general gets in the way doesn't it? love Shaz in Oz.x
