Elephants & Hand-lettering


The neon blobs from my Bonkers post now have the company of some lovely (if I do say so myself) elephants, one of which has its own company of a little visitor. I've put them up for sale in the shop today along with No Place Like Home no. 6

I also recently did a bit of hand-lettering ... this one's a favorite quote by Henry David Thoreau. Unfortunately, watercolor paper wasn't the best thing to use, but it was a fun exercise. I'd like to do more hand-lettering. There's something about putting meaningful quotes down on paper that breathes new life into them for me, and it would be nice to share them with others. Maybe they would make good prints, too... and perhaps with a bit of illustration. What do you think?

  2. Thanks Molly! Sadly, I'm having no luck figuring out how to print fluorescents...
