E,F,G,H, FROM MIEKE.


I keep going the way I started and think about a way of connecting them together.

It's so much fun working with shellac and wax.

I really like the rust of the letters.

And the added split-pins make it more dotti I hope.

Another layer of shellac on the rust glues it on well.

  1. They look so neat Mieke. Don't know how you've managed to keep the rust so well contained in the letter. The look solid and dependabvle... if that makes any sense.

  2. What a great series! - looks like the edges are wrapped in copper or the stuff used in stained glass - great added texture.

  3. The process is totally alien to me so these are very interesting!

  4. I love the added split-pins; but the background and the texture of the letters is wonderful as well!
