May letters from Linda






Here is my May set of letters - plus the letter G because I seem to have posted the letter I twice... so I only have 6 more to go in this alphabet set. I expect you are getting bored of all these black and white letters now (I am!) so I promise my next alphabet is going to be colourful!

My second lot of letters - catching up





Here are 4 more letters in my 'happy accident' series. I am hoping to be able to collate them into a collaged work once I have finished them all...

Linda's first letters

The paint effect on the large large letters was a happy accident! I was experimenting writing with water and dropping black gouache into the puddles - then I blotted one with a kitchen paper towel that has these dots impressed all over it - and it gave this surprising textured effect! So I have run with it and intend completing this alphabet along the same lines. Tools used: Horizon pen, balsa pen, pointed pen or edged pen, all using black gouache diluted in different strengths with water, on HP watercolour paper.

Linda.
