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.
…alas, and I read all the books
Fragment of a poem by Mallarmé realized on a page of a dictionary (the book par excellence).
And, to be a little in my era, I calligraphed these verses with a palette pen by reinterpreting a typeface, the COURIER NEW whose spaces are somettimes bad and which still are in my interpretation.
The whole was calligraphied in Payne’s grey and, for decoration, a little bit of watercolor with some white and ultramarine blue.
The Christmas holidays are approaching and you may not know what to offer your loved ones in these troubled times.
I propose you filigreed letters and monograms.
The materials (inks, paints, gilding, papers) are used according to your requests.
Prices range from 20 to 200€ (excluding shipping costs) depending on the size and complexity requested.
For any order, you can contact me by mail or by phone from the contact information displayed on this page.
some recent examples with a quartet of Payne grey lettering 2 cm high
and then a lighter blue for a D of the same size
walnut ink, always at 2 cm
And a large monogram (letters of 4cm and filigree of 10) with gilding.
Christmas is coming and I decided to redecorate the window of my workshop.
If you have windows or a shop window that you would like to decorate for the holidays, you can find my contacts on this page.

It’s been far too long since I’ve posted anything. Various contingencies have kept me away from my computer.
For my return, I am sharing a monogram that I made a few weeks ago but that I didn’t want to show until it had arrived in Australia, at its addressee’s home. It’s done and so here is Linda’s monogram, LCK, hand-made linen paper, gold leaf and, as far as colours are concerned, a mixture of Payne grey, Prussian blue and cobalt blue.
The circle of filigrees is about 8 centimetres in diameter.
