Lyndell - Various letters

Many, many apologies.  Too many things to do and not enough time etc etc (just like everyone else I suspect).  I have got so far behind that I've been struggling to catch up!  So now I'm posting a whole lot of letters at once and not in any particular order.
Luckily I do have some ideas on how to present them once I've got them done.

  1. What a beautiful variety of patterns for the backgrounds. Did you create them with tiny dots? I like the delicacy of the letters themselves as well...
    There are still three weeks left until the halfway mark of the year - now that you've gotten going, hopefully the rest of the letters will flow!

  2. All those lovely intricate backgrounds are amazing. The simple letter forms just jump off the background - love the colors - it there some shine there?

  3. Great backgrounds... and I really like the sepia colour.

  4. The tiny dots are done on a quink ink background with bleach. It's quite strange in some respects as sometimes the bleach turns the paper a sepia colour and at other times it's quite a bright yellow. The beauty of it is that there is no telling what will happen. It's quite spontaneous in that respect. Good fun.
