This illumination took 6 months from design to completion. It served as both meditation and promise during these difficult times as I wove the ribbons around the word and built up the lush foliage. The letters are inspired by expressive, free form Arts Nouveau letterforms. To create the effects I used multiple processes with the same colors, including wet on wet within the boundaries of the gold leaf, a Chinese painting technique of pigments over titanium white, and my own process of blending watercolors like oil paints.
