I haven'...Im late to reading this but I love it! I haven't tried doing any letting in clay yet but Id love to try it! Its interesting to see how you go about doing it too.. see Id have probably cut out the clay with the tracing paper printed with the letters on top... and done it similar to how you have done it but id have cut it out and placed it on the background like you did the horse.. I know too much work.. so its nice to see how you went about it.. Love the design... oh and yes.. hand letting.. when I was in school to get my design degree I had to do a kind of multi page report but in a Celtic design and letting... lol so here I was hand letting like the illumintated manuscripts and had 2 pages done when the darn teachers said..oh no.. you have to draw the letters in Illustrator and do it on the computer! ARGGG... I did it.. thank god I found a font ( but with crappy kerning) but then he I still made me hand to draw each letter in the alphabet in illustrator! and then had to do a few of the big illuminated type lettering you see on each page.. with all the designs all over them.. .. I think I still have it..I thank god got an A on that project...lol..... I took calligraphy too so.. yea I know about all that too.. I liked it at first but after doing a few pieces and when I was done finding I spelled a letter wrong by switching letters... ( I have done that alot) and had to start all over again from scratch! ARGGG! I had, had enough..lol...<br />Rebecca Turner<br />www.solticeartstudio.blogspot.comBecky Turnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08918941303698200752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5766578391965119860.post-71915173892264895202009-11-17T18:59:22.738-05:002009-11-17T18:59:22.738-05:00Gad, how complex!
