susan's q, r , s and t ......

Here they are - a little later than most people but here never-the-less!  I suppose we are all starting to think about presentation at this point?  I confess I haven't given it much thought as yet, have thought about the second alphabet, not yet begun, but not given time to this one.  I must.  Only six letters to go ....... which will mean half the year gone already.







 See you all next month ...... for some of us getting colder and for those of you 'up there', enjoy the approaching summer warmth.

Kim Schoenberger - MNOPQ - RSTUV

I'm late and early! April's letters MNOPQ and RSTUV for May. Continuing on with my polka dot pianola scroll with the letters being cut out creating a negative space. 

My research into the light box idea so far is looking to be a costly exercise!  I do want to finish the piece in this way and have been to many different stores for advice - I have a few more places to check out, however at the moment - I'm in the procrastination phase ...


Letters for May

I must say it feels like forever since I did these letters in preparation for my time away.


These have had Sumi-E water based Japanese calligraphy ink applied.

Left to dry

But not too long

and then rinsed off under running water.
I wonder what I will do next!!!!

Julie's MNOP

Hello Lettering People! Going back to my first alphabet, here are the next 4 letters. I am alternating alphabets each month just for variety...so next month will be my alphabet based on circles. Love what you all are doing! Julie Gray Denver, NC

Q, R, S, T - Jo

Next month I'll just have to do six letters as I tend to schedule four a month, no matter how many weeks.

Here's May.....







The number of letters might present some presentation problems, as I'd planned to frame them in sets.  Guess if I did 3 x 9 and added a signature to the last that would work.

terrie's letters for may

This alpha is nearing the end - guess I better figure out how I'm going to display/finish it!  And, my little brain is spinning, working, thinking about what comes next.

Elaine's April 4 plus one


I have just realised that February had 5 weeks! I have included that extra letter this month.
I think it is good, in one way, that I am working on the letters in a random order, rather than in an alphabetical one, as I am able to create the letters more freely i.e. variations in the forms don’t matter.

Jenny's April letters...almost


Well, May has come so my April letters are finished...until I realise that i have done N twice!!  So here are three of my April letters and the fourth will have to wait until the end of May.  Oops!  I am also most of the way through making the book that they will go into - only the cover to go.
