Sandra's first letters

I have chosen ‘Braggadocio Regular’ as my font, I like it because of it’s bulk, which gave me the facility

to use my own paintings with each letter.   I made stencils from each letter, then cut the finished ones out with a sharp Stanley knife.....what a fiddle that was,  I now have to think about how the finished item will come together....a few ideas swimming around.   The letters are not perfect....maybe by the time I get to Z they could be ????

I have enjoyed drawing from an early age, a course at art college helped to focus my skills

and ideas.  In subsequent years I’m still focused on learning.....how do you portray the care

that goes into the construction of a nest, within the constraints of a drawing media.

I gradually brought clay into the equation, and started to slip cast eggs, and paint them, to represent

the real thing, then making a slip cast pillow, as a metaphor for the nest. 

I am much slower now in producing work, as age takes hold, but the passion never leaves.

That is why I have decided to have a go at  ALAW.     

Sandra.

This is some of my art work from recent years.

 

and here is an 'S' just for starters.
