One of my projects this week was this lovely adoption poem. It was lettered in a more casual script. Long and narrow, it was made to fit a specific sized frame. I love the poem, and have seen two versions of it. This is my favorite. I do not know the author's name. Thanks to my personal photographer ...

This auction will be held to help pay for a trip to NAMM in California for Octane5, a very good local boy band. Her grandson Zayne Hutchison is the lead singer in the band. ...

I recently found this old note to Santa that my boys had written when they were little. Santa stopped in his busy present-leaving to eat the cookies, drink the milk and leave a thank you note. Good Santa! A recent project from two angles. Though I do more Ornamental script and copperplate these days ...

(And I've only just learned that hubs doesn't like forgotten cookies!) Poinsettias seem to show up annually too. So bright ...

Here are some long overdue pages from my journal of my vacation in France this summer. I wonder if it would be 'cheating' to add after-the-fact pages...I left out a lot and have lots of photos to add too, or maybe more sketches. To see photos, see other entries in this blog, and click here to see my ...

Here's an envelope - albeit a number ten business envelope - in my traditional wedding script. The address has been smudged for privacy. It's going in the mail in the morning! I took a photo of this souvenir of France today. It was a champagne cork I found in the Courtyard where many weddings were h ...

I am finally getting around to redecorating my bedroom - as part of the major re-do of the main living areas of my house. As I took this piece off the wall, I wondered how much it might have faded, though it hasn't been exposed to direct sunlight. I did this piece in 2001/2002. I looked up the photo ...

A few of my friends can do this looser style effortlessly and it always looks so good. This is one of my first attempts to loosen up from the more traditional scripts that I do. I'll continue to work on this one because I really love it and know it can be both fun and beautiful. I still have lots of ...
