My Voice You Shall Hear


Maybe some of you might remember this piece from a ways back but I have finally adhered it to a canvas so it can go into the JCA North Florida Calligraphers show coming up in May. I am not sure how many pieces I will put in but I do know that I am planning to not spend a penny on framing. Everything will go on canvas or in a Target black frame (my favorite frame anyway). I have spent so much money on framing in the past so no more----I'd rather buy art supplies!!
This one is 11 x 14 and I tore the edges with a "ruffled" ruler. It might be too "ruffled". I can always tone it down with watercolor. I will have to look at it awhile and decide.

This blue and yellow is wonderful. Love the verse and love the torn edges.

Beautiful piece Martha!! I think the ruffled edge balances the white of the text paper perfectly.

beautiful and it is even more special the way you've adhered it to the canvas. i too like to set pieces aside and think about them and decide if they are finished or if they need just a tiny bit more tweaking!!
