ARTWORK | August – Perseverance, September – Determination/Gratitude
(Multiple Artwork Series) The alphabets is part of an ongoing project of Oil Pastel / Oil Paint Alphabets I have been working on for nearly two years. The very basis, the foundation of our lives as calligraphers is the alphabet, these 26 letters. The endless combination of letter shapes and colors has given me joy and solace through the worst days of the pandemic. Finding peace through the use of letters and color has been a sustaining experience. In addition, I have been sharing this artwork, sending alphabets to friends to try to give them a moment of pleasure in dark times. So this is all about gratitude -- being grateful that I can create something that I can share and that makes me happy as well. I am eternally grateful that I have the means and ability to make something beautiful with my hands.
