Online filigree courses

i 'm doing a small series of filigree letters again, a little bigger than usual and with some gilded dots.

This is the occasion to announce 2 online courses on filigree.

The first one, in English, will take place on September 25 and 26, it is the first course of the series.

The second one, in French, will take place on October 9 and 10, 2021, it is called filigree 2 but can be taken without having done the first one, they are 2 courses of the same level.

You will find more information and links for registration on this page.

And I leave you with my last creations, have a nice sunday :-)

WIFI code & contest

 I have fun with lettering and after my supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, I wanted to do something else without really knowing what.

And then I thought that this kind of lettering, not necessarily easy to decipher, could be useful. You're tired of not remembering your passwords or your wifi code but you don't want to display them too obviously? I can write them down for you!

As an example, here is a wifi code containing 8 lowercase letters, 9 uppercase letters, 2 special characters, 4 numbers and 3 latin abbreviations.

The first person to give me the right transcription as a comment on my french blog (go to the bottom of the page : https://cutt.ly/6WrOP1X) will receive the original of this code as well as a small filigree letter with the initial of his choice.

And to help you even more, here is a version of the same code without the decoration.

need glasses ?

To answer this question, you can test yourself with this Monoyer chart (it's the french version of the Snellen chart) in Art Nouveau style.

As usual, I couldn't help but put filigrees on it

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

 In honor of World Calligraphy Day, a new version of the famous Mary Poppins word.

I should have chozen a shorter one, this one is difficult to show in one picture, here is a version cut in 2, a bit bigger. The actual size is 1.5cm for the letters.

Welcome

 Welcome to little Alexandre, born last week.

To celebrate his birth, a filigree initial with, for once, a bit of color.

Waiting for inspiration

Or rather, while waiting for things to become clearer in my head about my next composition, here are my morning scribbles.

Four little Payne's gray initials with their filigree. You've already seen dozens of them, but it's always nice, isn't it?
