Mil Plumas Calligraphy: It's a Wrap
http://milplumascalligraphy.blogspot.com/2015/01/its-wrap.html
Saturday, January 31, 2015. Cavallini and Co. images. Perhaps, like me, you are a fan of Cavallini and Co. S vintage image calendars. And if so, perhaps, also like me, you cannot bear to throw them away. So there they sit in the studio, more years' worth than I care to count, trimmed and neatly stacked. Inspiration, fortunately, struck: I took a calendar page, cut a piece of vintage Fabriano colored paper the same size and lay it in as a liner ( Canson Mi-Teintes. Cavallini and Co. images. This isn't the...

Mil Plumas Calligraphy: Triple Threat
http://milplumascalligraphy.blogspot.com/2015/03/triple-threat.html
Sunday, March 15, 2015. In other words, I am the Kiss of Death (KOD) for auction items. But I'm giving it one more shot this year! I've chosen three verses that are special to the children and known to the parents at the school, and illuminated the heck out of them. Gold leaf, crystals, Spectralite, Finetec, the works! I figure even if these babies don't go for much, I sure had a great time making them. Each is a little less than 5"x5", and I popped them into 8" x 8" frames. The curse is lifted. As a pro...

Mil Plumas Calligraphy: Pretty in Pink
http://milplumascalligraphy.blogspot.com/2010/06/pretty-in-pink.html
Monday, June 21, 2010. Still riffing on Judy Detrick. S wonderful "Decorated Caps" class for the Friends of Calligraphy. For these I used my largest broad nib and drew the letters in J. Herbin cyclamen ink, then dropped in my old standby, Spectralite 56K gold (which conveniently comes with an eyedropper installed). After the letter was dry (sometimes with a little paper-towel wicking to take away the puddles) I added the rest of the name with pointed pen, full bleed. Labels: J. Herbin. Mil Plumas" is Spa...

Mil Plumas Calligraphy: Christmas Comes Early
http://milplumascalligraphy.blogspot.com/2010/12/christmas-comes-early.html
Thursday, December 2, 2010. I don't know about you, but for me the word "clipart" has the connotation of fairly simple, cartoonish images that really are not of much use in the calligraphic world. But today I am positively swooning over the discovery of University of South Florida's Center for Instructional Technology's Clipart ETC. At first glance their logo, an ampersand superimposed over a map of Florida, is a good sign- but does not even compare with the riches to come. There are 60,000. One wild and...
