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 #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 […]

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 #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!
