Week 1
"Pic of the Week". All of us in calligraphy are visual.
I'd like to email you one picture a week of beautiful work from the
new Course, PRIMITIVE TO MODERN.
My hope is that in seeing these delightful pieces of art you'll be
enticed to take a peek at my website
reggieezell.com
and enjoy the slide shows. All of us hate getting unsolicited
email so if you want me to take you off the list I understand.
I'm sending everything from a Mac. Hope you are inspired by the
work!

Here is Pic of the Week #2.
I will get better at this as I do it more. Last week some of you emailed back and wanted particulars about Magda's work. She was a student in this year's Chicago Class. The work itself is from month 5, "Design". It is collage utilizing papers, digital images taken of stained glass and manipulated in the computer. It is approximately 11"x15".
