Uncial _ Yes 1 & Yes 2

  

I'm taking a 2 day class with Barb Fuller (a BVCG Guild Member) in Uncials. It's one of my favorite hands... but does take up a lot of room especially since I don't like using small nibs...


On Canson Pro Marker paper I used a Simply Simons #10 chisel brush (for both "Yes's") - which is a touch smaller than 1/2" and loaded it with water - one letter at a time. Dropped in Ecoline inks into the wetness. Blotted it a bit so it would dry faster...

Top Yes: shadowed on the right side with a Caran c'Ache B pencil and paper stump. Outlined on the left side with a medium toned blue Juice Up pen.

Bottom Yes: wrote the text with a black Juice Up pen and used a yellow colored pencil to shade around the words.
words: YES is a good word

It's wonderful how you make art out of letters.
