French Lace: A Painted Journal

French Lace: A Painted Journal
Books and other media

While these two books do not apply directly to this class Jean is teaching, she recommends these two new books on creativity:
2851. The Creative License: Giving Yourself Permission to be the Artist you Truly Are by Danny Gregory. Paper $16.00
This book is hard to resist with its delightful, small, doodlely watercolor sketches. It's written in a light, humorous style. Even more important, the content is good and practical. The book will give you a chuckle or two, and has many little art exercises.
3188. Caffeine for the Creative Mind: 250 Exercises to Wake Up Your Brain by Stefan Mumaw and Wendy Lee Oldfield. 2006. 359 pp. Paper $16.95
"This is a great little book. Many of the "exercises" involve drawing or writing. In addition to the content, I like the book design itself" - Jean
CL2310. Jean Formo 2010 Wall Calendar. Biblical Wall Calendar. The Living Word. $7.95
Copies of Jean's 2009 Wall Calendar (CL2309) are still available for only $3.95. You have 12 of Jean's colorful calligraphy compositions as well as a calendar that is still good for six months!

I101. Liquitex Acrylic Ink
Liquitex Acrylic Ink. 30ml bottle.
30 colors. Super fine pigments suspended in a state-of-the-art acrylic emulsion. Like all acrylics, they dry more quickly than traditional calligraphy inks. When dry, they are waterproof for calligraphy applications. Lightfast rating given for each color. Free flowing, no need to dilute for calligraphy, except the Iridescents (metallics) which you can thin with alcohol. Because they are pigmented ink, you will find some colors are superior in a pen than others.
As with all acrylic inks, use pen cleaner or ammonia in water to clean your pens.
