April offerings

These are getting harder . . . I must go back and look at the rest again! All the easy ones are done now.
I also don't know why the colour is different from the January batch. I didn't write down any of the specs when I first scanned them. They all look the same in the 'flesh' - just not on screen. Very frustrating!

No more for a while,

March posting

Well, we are back in the land of the living (every day life, that is!). The family have gone home having had a fabulous holiday and I am slowly catching up with my chores - this being one of them. I actually had these done sometime ago, but just didn't get the chance to upload them to the blog.
. . . the next four soon to follow,
confuzed as always,

black, white and a touch of ...

So far, so good! I'm on track.

This is my black, white and a touch of ... alphabet.

Another layered work, using the ruling pen alphabet I did in 2010 in my first little book. I think it makes a good balance for the geometric shapes.

The bottom layer is a block of black lower case 'a's, 'b's, 'c's, etc in Courier font, printed by inkjet on Canson paper.

In between this and the ruling pen letter (scanned and printed as a tint of black on tracing paper) there is a geometric shape resembling a A, B C etc. This is my touch of colour - a rich brown.

I like the way the ruling pen letters look like shadows, and the freedom of the ruling pen letters offsets the formality of the typeset letters.

These are glued together flat, and will be put in a small box when finished.

Looking forward to seeing all the work again this year. It is such fun opening the blog every few days to new work!
Keep it up everyone,
Meg
