that i found
my true strength
which is
love.

In light of a potential #calligraphy commission that has landed in my inbox, I've pulled out my pens to see if, after several years of focusing on Islamic geometric art I stil remember how to do letters.
Here's the result! It came from a 'quotes.txt' document I compiled during the Trump years; you can perhaps see the influence. Words from Seanan McGuire; lettering done with a Pilot Parallel Pen; ink is KWZ Honey.

#SciArtSeptember Day 7: Indigo
True Indigo, Indigofera tinctoria, is the source of the plant-based #indigo dye. The glucoside, indican, is derived from the plant to produce the final product, indigo blue. Indigo red is also produced, and while also used as a dye, it is more commonly used in medical applications.
I wish my notes looked this neat when I took organic chemistry...

I have been consumed with binding artist books and writing the monograph that goes with them, but I expect to finish writing tomorrow! Now that I'm so close to printing, I'm opening pre-orders for the monograph: It's a chance to catch it at the early bird price but the window closes when the book goes to press. It will ship in October after my campaign fulfillment.

#SciArtSeptember Day 6: Understory
Now that is a term I haven't heard since my high school AP Environmental class!
I used references from some photos of #deer I took earlier this summer during morning walks.

New Letter Arts Review has arrived!!!
Still need to find out what happened to the June issue, which I never received. And since it had Joke Boudens' work on the cover, I am DESPERATE to read it. But I'll follow that up later.
Tonight, #calligraphy and #lettering work to explore!

#SciArtSeptember Day 4: Cold-Blooded
I saw today's prompt and was excited to create a watercolor sketch of the Green Sea Turtle, Chelonia mydas, to share.
Also trying to get back into the rhythm of #brushlettering ...

I was so excited to find I had more zinnia bloom with this lovely light orange and pink ombre color this year. I've yet to be satisfied with the mixes I've attempted, but this last attempt came very close.

Today I learnt that Amaury Guichon can do Chinese #calligraphy too. And not just one character, no, haha. Enough to cover a whole chocolate vase, because why on earth would you take the easy route? https://youtube.com/shorts/UiXtXTCF9SM?si=vIZScz4dvxZJfhYx

A Chinese note, I found and later framed. I haven't deciphered it yet, but in the second line I see an ear and the color white. #Chinese #calligraphy #handwriting #handwritten #FoundNote

Fish seem to be my muse!
Dug out some old (like a decade old!) #gouache to study more painting techniques. I've only used them as #calligraphy ink. Then compared them to my #watercolor process. I was also testing my #lineart skills as I've been trying to transition my calligraphy techniques into my drawing/painting.
