I visited Donaldson, Indiana yesterday to gather with two other artists and the planners there for the Saint John's Bible retreat in June. We will "teach or lead" calligraphy, illumination and making of a book. Barbara Sutton, from St. John's University also involved in the planning and leading the retreat. <br />
<br />
These are photos of the church within the Mother House there built in 1922. It resembles a European church and was inspirational to see the artifacts, etc. I'll post the photos from Moon Tree Studio that is across the street and was built about four years ago to house the art gallery and studios.<br />

When I saw the box and how it was made I knew even before I opened it that it sure looked like a box that might hold ink stones and/or sticks. Could hardly believe it when I opened it and found three ink stones and several ink sticks! I've never seen the little porcelon cups before -I guess you can put the ink in them as you grind it. The box is about 6 x 10 and I came across it in a large antique mall!Marjoriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11565840163446250730noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5475200878755122859.post-42558292263599674592014-04-07T13:49:00.001-07:002014-04-07T13:49:03.942-07:00New work from workshops<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The other picture was a house that would be fun to paint but the wild flowers were too high. Had to hold my camera way up in the air to get this.

Path at the Little Red Schoolhouse. What a wonderful place to take kids and its all free. They have a new building but the old one was closed for renovation. It will be nice to have that still open as it was there when I was young and visited with the girl scouts! <br />

Our last plein aire class met at the Little Red Schoolhouse -had to have our critique at a nearby forest preserve. The weather was ideal and even cool in the shade that day. We always luck out with the weather! I should have taken more photos of all the wonderful work, done in pencil, watercolor and pen and ink.<br /><br />Marjoriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11565840163446250730noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5475200878755122859.post-45862101184922191982013-07-25T14:37:00.000-07:002013-07-25T14:37:47.752-07:00Plein Aire group at my yard<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Colors are still quite light -we work outside on site and get as much done as we have time for. I'll work to finish them on my own. <br />

This was the last thing I did in class-trying to try to get the watercolor step started to finish the quote. The pressure and release letters were the variations we learned. If you enlarge, you'll see the lined paper we put underneath the top sheet which helped save time to not measure and draw lines.<br />

Two more practice sheets -which are pages that will be sewn into a book form. The top -the traditional caps and the bottom shows some of the variations which in this case are based on the oval shape.<br />

As always, Peter's workshop was wonderful. He used the folded pen to letter our names on the cover of our books which hold all our notes and practice pages. <br />
<br />
On the first day we worked with HB pencils, drawing upper case letters. First on the basic "Trajan Capitals" and then on to other variations. Then using the 2B pencil, we worked on the Pressure and Release style making more practice pages for our books. It's always nice to put the pages into book form to use as a reference later.<br />
Sunday we moved to the pen and with Peter's fabulous pen work demos, we worked hard to make our letters look like his! I've shown the M, N etc, done by him. <br />
<br />
We ran out of time before we got our pages sewn together, but I'll do that before the time gets away, and hopefully won't put it off. I have too many unfinished things from workshops. <br />

This was such an exciting workshop taught by Luce Zolna, one of our Chicago Calligraphy Collective members! The purple photos are her demos and the rest are mine- most of the favorites were of the botanicals we printed, but I put on some photos of the prints we did with just soft rollers and color. The lettering was done almost blind on top of a paper covering the paint! <br />

I finished this collage to go into the Palos Heights Library with the collage class that April taught. We used coffee to paint papers with to start with and I also selected green and purple acrylic paints. Various papers were painted to start with such as dictionary pages, white paper bags, and sheets of music. So the collage started with those painted papers and then we added other papers we had. I had some tissue paper that had green and purple paint and coffee filters with coffee flecks. I decided to cut out leaves to add an image and then was lucky enough to find a quote about music and leaves. I used a style that I learned in Monica Dengo's workshop with a handmade folded "coke pen".<br />
