"THE LORD BLESS YOU"





HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY

The layout and the lettering on this was borrowed from the layout of Suzanne Moore's beautiful piece in the St. John's Bible. I did the lettering and the background of course---and I love these caps. I need to practice using these letterforms in more pieces.
For the background I layed down inks and placed Saran Wrap on the wet ink and let it dry. This technique makes great backgrounds. Then I put the letters on the piece in PhotoShop. I had previously scanned my lettering. I use this combininb technique quite a lot.
