Circle

My wife, who is (among other talents) an excellent framer, offered me a small round frame in mahogany tones and told me to find something to put in it.
Challenge taken up (after several failures). And I chose, you'll never guess,... filigrees!

I used two very different dilutions of the walnut stain to get a little more variety. And, if you ask yourself the question, the circle is 7.5cm in diameter.

Inked circles

Some tries for a project that may be stillborn if I consider the enthusiasm I feel when looking at the results (or maybe I just should try harder).

Some circles are not too bad, here are a few close-ups to show the ones I prefer

What about you ? Do you like some of them ?

OLD STUFF - Guillevic

I'm going to post here the most interesting (or so I believe) works I made these last 2 years and that were only posted on the french version of the blog.
I hope you will like it even if it can be considered as old stuff.

The concerned posts titles will start by "OLD STUFF".

To begin with, here is a set of short poems by Guillevic (french poet of the XXth century).

I made them on paper, using the same script (humanistic minuscule) and the same design. The adornment in the circle is supposed to echo the text.

clouds

clock

leaves

bramble

trees

No, I'm not forgetting you, neither do I forgot calligraphy.
The fact is that I have quite a lot of work right now and that I'm working on a new project I can't tell you about for the moment.
As a starter, just a pic :
