Redecorating my #studio with a new colorized version of old #calligraphy #artwork I did many years ago. The original pieces were made for the #hermannzapf scholarship application. Even though I didn’t get selected, I learned a lot from the feedback I received. I know the strokes are quite rigid and lack the energy you’d see in the master’s work. I’m thankful for classes by Yves Leterme, Carrie Imai, and John Stevens whose lively work inspired me to keep improving 💕 (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDFgTf-DYtV/?igshid=1lx1ou4648gs7
