Evening gold

Personal interpretation of the first lines of the novel Vol de Nuit by Antoine de Saint Exupéry, in Art Nouveau lettering, watercolour and gilding on paper.

Monogram

It’s been a long time since I posted filigrees…

Here is a monogram made for a commission to make a tattoo (I think it’s going to be painful).

The overall design is 15cm in diameter, acrylic paint on paper.

And, if you wonder how to make things like that, there are 2 new online courses scheduled. Check this page to get more information & register.

Late Valentine

I shared this before the fateful date on social networks but I didn’t take the time for those of you who are not affiliated with it.

So I’m fixing my mistake, with a little delay.

Knotwork

I discovered calligraphy through the study of Celtic decoration more than 27 years ago.

I go back in time and propose you to discover these decorations with their construction methods in an online course.

The English version will take place on February 27 and 28, 2021.

The French version will take place on February 20 and 21, 2021.

I have only been posting works related to my online courses recently. I have to admit that it takes a lot of time.
Nevertheless, with Valentine’s Day approaching, I decided to do something a bit different.
Here is a Roman capital decorated with white vine on a support of patinated copper leaf, the whole being made with acrylic paint.
I take this opportunity to wish you (with a little advance), full of love in this new year.

And, if you doubt my ability to realize a patinated copper foil collage, you are right. It is my wife who made it… All I did was to scribble my Roman capital and its associated Vine over it.

All I need is love and a woman who does great things to help me 😉

Coming soon a new online course on knotwork construction techniques.

And a little video to make you want to assist to this course (or not)

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

As Mary Poppins said…

And here is a new version of this beautiful word.

Also, the occasion for me to announce a new online course on Art Nouveau, again based on the lettering of the magazine VER SACRUM.

This course will be online and in English on February 6 and 7, 2021.

How to go from this

to this

You need walnut ink, acrylic paint, a cutter, small pieces of brass, varnish and a little patience.

If you wish to see the whole work, here is a video

Things will get better

We hope so!
And so I wish you, a little in advance, a

And, for those of you who haven’t made your Christmas cards yet, there are still a few places left for the Art Nouveau for New Year’s Eve class on December 28.

Variations

I’ve been very busy lately with my online courses and I haven’t had much time to create new works even if I have (as always) lots of projects in my drawers.
To make you wait, here are a few small letters with, for once, a little bit of color (I confess, my palette is limited).
