"Kerri Forster - Folded Pen Exploration - P3 - Exemplars"

Created: November 3, 2016
Modified:

all lettering done with a folded pen. All the lettering on white paper is done on an unknown/unmarked brand, that has a really nice weight and works well with calligraphy.

ID: Opera Pink Exemplar
size: 7"w x 9"h 

I mixed up some Opera Pink gouache, water and gum Arabic. After writing each letter dropped in some blue on the shadow side using a pointed pen. 

 

 

ID: Walnut Ink Exemplar
Size: 4.5"w x 8.5"h 

I love the effect of wet walnut inked letters blotted up with a paper towel. It leaves such a nice textured look to the letters...

You can't see it in the exemplar, but if you look closely at the detail pic below you can see a gold stroke in the first line of letters and a pink stroke in the next line... 

I added a brush stroke line in the thick strokes using StarQuest Mica Colors Interference palette.
