Hi!
Are you well?
I have been doing lots of brush lettering lately, from bullet journaling to envelope art, I’ve had my brush pens in hand a lot.
I love to make ATC’s (Artist Trading Cards) to send friends in letters. They’re not really the same size as real ATC’s (2½” by 3½”), but that’s pretty much what they are. I like to make little things to send friends. Some of my friends send them, too, and it’s always fun to open up a letter and look at them(:
I’m not entirely fond of THIS one, but it’s OK. I love this purple color, so you’ll see a lot of it(:
Writing in thick block letters in a light color, then going over top of it in brush script is probably one of my favorite techniques to use.
I also really like doing an ombré effect. (below)
I do these flowers (below) on my cards a lot. They’re pretty and fun to do.
That same technique. (And purple color!😂)
AUGH! More flowers and purple!! (Wow, I must’ve really liked them that day!)
I know this post was rather short, but I thought I’d share a little bit of art I’ve been doing of late! ATC’s are really fun to give and to receive, so if you’re sending a letter out soon, maybe send an Artist Trading Card!
Thanks much for reading!
The ombré effect is the best! Do you sell these? I would buy them, you have a true talent…they’re so…good!! ❤ If you do want to create a business I remember you said you liked my Entrepreneur series, you can look at that and get some tips, I can even help you design your site if you want. (Sorry, I'm not trying to be pushy, I'm just impressed!) ❤
