I have enjoyed doing these 4 letters as they allowed more of the painted image to be seen, the O acts as a magnifying glass, so as to be able to see the feather close up. 
 

 
As one will see I still have straight line problems, some black edges wider than others.









As you may have guessed I am particularly fond of nests and feathers.

  1. And I still think they would look very nice on my passage wall!
    Could you, perhaps, post a photo of the original artwork? Or have you cut it all into pieces!

    1. Hi Dinahmow.
      Would it be correct for me to post a full image on this blog spot?
      There are multi images used, and no, I haven't cut up the originals, these images are taken from a set of cards that I have had printed. Would a set of cards suffice?

  2. I just love these...and I wouldn't worry about a little variation in the black edges - they are so beautifully unified regardless.

      thank you so much for your comment, I won't worry any more, you are right the subject and colours, unify them.

  4. Sandra i continue to be delighted by the letter forms- the shapes they make as you cut them out fascinate me, and then I get to gaze into them. I love the description of the O as a magnifying glass, and I do think very few eyes wander out to a slightly less than straight black line - they are too busy gazing at the letters!

    PS - feel free to show an image of the originals - I think that adds interest to the process for sure.
