This piece was done for Session 3, assignment #1. (Codex Aureus)
I wanted to do these particular words in a way that would be as impacting as the words themselves are to me. I chose the modern lettering style that was in the handouts from the 26 Seeds class. (I had been wanting to do a piece with these letters.)
I did some sketching and the breakdown of the words worked out well for the positive/negative pattern of the Codex Aureus layout provided by Reggie. I transferred the design with Saral paper and laid down two layers of gesso followed by a layer of Instacoll and 2 layers of gold leaf. I then added the red lines with Cadmium Red pigment and a ruling pen. The paper is Arches black cover. Size: 9 X 12.
a Year to Grow” is filled. However, if you send
me your name (not money) I will place you on a
waiting list. If any places open up I will immediately
contact you. Thank you. Reggie
