While waiting for inspiration for more ambitious works, I continue with filigrees. This time it is a V and in blue shades to change a bit from the usual B&W.

Initial
Tag: illumination
While I thought that I was learning how to live…
I had this small piece of paper and a few hours to spend lately, I took advantage of this situation to calligraphy this short sentence by Leonardo Da Vinci.
I chose to use only black & white, first because I love B&W (in case you didn’t notice) but also because the contrast meets the contrast that exists between the two parts of Da Vinci’s quotation.

Walnut stained vine
No time nor inspiration these times to create any calligraphic work but nevertheless itching to use my nibs and a rest of walnut stain at the bottom of a glass…
So here is the result, a small illuminating based on white vine only colored with walnut stain and my loved filigrees to encase it.
For the whole work, have a look at the gallery.
Flowers
Being inspired by the filigree pattern used in my latest initial, I decided to reuse it to create a small illumination, this time with ferro-gallic ink and wallnut stain to remain close to the shade of the kraft paper.

As it is quite long, one cannot really see anything on this pic, that’s why I took close-ups :
The Flies
A long time ago, I did a draft using bits of the text The Flies by Jean-Paul Sartre.
I eventually find the energy to get back to it, here are a few pics of the work in progress.

At last, I’ve finished the white vine pattern I was working on for several weeks now.
