Seeing in Black and White

11/25/2013

My nephew Jared recently graduated from optometry school. He chose a quote that I wrote for him as a graduation present.

I tried the design several ways and on both black and white backgrounds. For both I used a ruling writer and wrote with Dr. Ph. Martin's Bleedproof white Ink, dropping in blue and green watercolour while it was wet. On the white background I added a pencil shadow to make the letters look 3D.

Jared chose the version on white. I love how it looks framed! My framer, Karen,  hand-stitched a pair of glasses (less the arms) to the bottom of the calligraphy and used a deep frame. Check out her website - www.timeframes.ca/
