Phone Calligraphy
The shapes and rhythms of calligraphy are on my mind. Calligraphy free from writing. Free from letters. I am having a binge. Will post more that I’m doing on my M200 but here is one with letters from the phone.
A few recent sketches
Still
Thousand Sketches – Colour
This is a sketch in the Thousand Sketches project. I was thunbing through them and noticed this one. I had no memory of it. Bland? I looked at it for ages. I like it!

Larger Image.
Art?
This is an image of Edgar Degas.
It began as a self portrait. Was captured in a movie and then I snapped it off the TV – made this using an iphone ap. But is it art? Anyway, I like it.
This is a new development!
Did this on the phone, in Layers. Exported to ArtRage on the Toshiba M200. Resized from 512 to 1000 px sq. Deleted some bit, highlighted others, added some ink! All still using the layers!
1951
This reminds me of a style that goes with the fifties. It is pre sixties… it may be forties? What is it about certain patterns that link them to eras?
Printing Circle
The ever present battle with pixels. I battle with them, but also accept them, they are brush strokes of sorts. I have tried to enhance the image that came off the iPhone. How does it look? I think it will print up well after this fiddle, click to enlarge.
Later:
I printed both and the one straight off the iphone was better. Printing took care of the pixelation quite well. Mind you I am printing these images about 12cm wide on A4 paper.
