Hope you have fun looking at my creations and other things I love in life.... calligraphy is my passion, but so is my family... consisting of "the love of my life", my hubby, and my three miniature long haired dachshunds. You'll see lots of them here. Loved this quote: There’s something sacred about reading a blog post on someone else’s site. It’s like visiting a friend’s house for a quick meal ’round the breakfast table. It’s personal—you’re in their space, and the environment is uniquely suited for idea exchange and uninterrupted conversation. In many ways, we should be treating our blogs like our breakfast tables. Be welcoming & gracious when you host, and kind & respectful when visiting.” – Trent Walton

Birthday gift to a friend

This was a birthday present that I created for a good friend of mine in the guild. It was during our "Reggie Ezell" year in 2006. We were studying this type of lettering and it was one of my homework projects, that I never showed, but instead DID and gave away. I tend to do this quite often! When once another member in the guild told me I could just enter "something I had on my wall into a current exhibit"... I looked at her in disbelief... telling her that I had NOTHING of mine on my walls because I always gave my work that I created, with love...for a certain purpose, away! I love this quote.. it's so true. Find purpose and passion... then share it with those you love and will always have that in common!

This was done with a Paste Paper background and Pure Pigments in a "snipped" pointed pen nib (EF66) with a straight staff.
