Genesis

My version of Genesis, in computer language (php) and in colors (as in my code editor), with the result displayed.

First, connect to server caelum (the sky) with username Moyses and password rubusarderet (burning bush) to access the database genesis.
If the connection fails, the system displays a fragment of an epigram of Martial: There is no god, the sky is empty.
Otherwise, we look for Genesis images and display them in ascending order.
If this step fails, a fragment of the Vulgate text will be displayed: terra est inanis et vacua.

The text and symbols are inspired by NEULAND with the introduction of uncial forms of abbreviations and ligatures.
Then there are the images, in iron gall ink, of the different days:
separation of light and darkness
separation of upper and lower waters
separation of land and water and creation of plants
creation of the moon, the sun and the stars
creation of birds and fish
creation of animals and man
rest

Monogram

Here is one of my last realizations on commission, an AFC monogram with the date of birth of the C integrated in the filigree and in shades of red.

So there are 2 reds, two types of filigree without counting the borders and gold leaf gilding.

Loneliness

It's been too long since I've posted a message on this blog. The fault is mine, mea culpa.
So here is a new work, it seems I can't get rid of the NEULAND lately.
It's a quote from Pascal Quignard, embossing on paper blackened with iron gall ink, insertion of golden patina by my wife.

loneliness, a precious stone, silence, darkness

Sorry for the quality of the pictures, the black of the paper is quite shiny and I couldn't get good pictures in any lighting.

Initials, next step

A few more initials & some monograms, things are progressing slowly.

commission

Not being able to give my classes, I nevertheless continue to work.
And a charming lady from Canada was kind enough to order some small letters with filigrees.
Here are the first ones, there will be more!

If you, too, would like to buy a letter, a monogram, on paper, on parchment, on metal, etc, don't hesitate to contact me :-)

A prayer

In these difficult times, regardless of our faith (I include atheists and agnostics), we all pray for things to get better.
Here is the result of a small commission that a friend made to me some time ago.

Gold leaf on gesso, watercolor, pigments and arabic gum on paper.

a need for squares

And filigrees, so there you go.
An abbreviation in the style of what I showed you a while ago here.

and a simple block of filigrees made up of intersecting lines
