Painterly Prose #30 – with Kelle McCarter
It’s always a pleasure to feature the work of @designsgirl, one of our favorite calligraphers! Her beautiful style has adorned so many of our pieces. An airy watercolor landscape seemed like a good fit for this flowing, open style.
Painterly Prose #29 – with Sarah Pawlowski
Thank you so Sarah of Flourish Grace for today’s Bible verse. We have probably all heard it many times, but a little reminder of Love is never out of place. Not much artwork is needed to accent that reminder, just a simple wash of airy watercolor. Done!
Painterly Prose #28 – with Arney Walker
So excited to have Arney Walker back on the blog today! An inspirational thought about art and life for you, from Stella Adler. Happy Friday!
Painterly Prose #27 – with Michele Hatty Fritz
The talented Michele of Meant to Be Calligraphy (@meanttobedc) has sent us a series of quotes she lettered for Danielle of Magnolia Bluebird, for her wedding. They are all gorgeous, and “love” themed. This short, simple ee cummings line seemed perfect for one of our watercolor woodland landscapes.
Painterly Prose #26 – with Dionne Christiansen
Good morning! A welcome back is in order to Dionne Christensen (@nibandpixel) who we have featured before, but today we have a slightly bolder style to show you. With so much character in the lettering, not much artwork is needed here, so simple watercolor washes make a lovely complement. Watercolor and calligraphy go so perfectly […]
Painterly Prose #25 – with Mallory Hopkins
We’ve featured @mhpknsbyhand a couple of times before and her gorgeous script never fails to amaze us. This morning we have a short and sweet Bible verse to feature, with some watercolor botanicals. Such beautiful, flowing lettering!
Painterly Prose – #24 – with Jennifer Mauricio
Another lovely, fun example from Jennifer Mauricio! Such a sweet quote by Audrey Hepburn, perfect for bright watercolor florals and patterns. We’ve had such dreary weather here, and these colors sure help to brighten things up.
Painterly Prose #23 – with Moya Minns
Once again we’re so excite to show off the work of Moya Minns! Free flowing script perfect for any occasion, and perfect for our watercolor vines and blooms. Together they are light, airy, and ready for spring!
Painterly Prose #22 – with Elizabeth Hardin
Lively, flowing, artful, carefree… all these words fit Elizabeth’s calligraphic style and make her work so fun to feature here! To match its vivacity, we’ve picked some light botanical elements and a watercolor wash with splashes of bright color. Happy and lighthearted, perfect for your Friday!
Painterly Prose #21 – Kelle McCarter
Any day that we get to feature designsgirl is a good day! This morning for Painterly Prose, a little reminder from CS Lewis that each day is new, and full of opportunity.
Painterly Prose #20 – with Moya Minns
We have a new artist to feature today for Painterly Prose, the talented Moya Minns of MMInk! Our lively and cheerful watercolor fruits just seemed perfect for Mahatma Gandhi’s reminder to spread love and life wherever you go.
Painterly Prose #19 – with Laura Hooper
We’re so happy to again feature Laura Hooper Calligraphy this morning! The quote is from Confucius, and it seems appropriate for those days when you just can’t seem to get anything done. We’ve all had them! Just relax, and remember that even a tiny step will still help get you where you want to go.
