G is for Gothic, calligraphic illumination by Amy Crook
I have to admit, I went for the pun a bit here, combining the Gothic capital with my own Goth sensibilities. The silver spiderwebs are half-seen until they catch the light, and the burgundy G floats in murky gloom, hanging out with the stripey little spider responsible for its extra decoration.
G is for Gothic, 5″x5″ pen & ink, Japanese watercolor, and glitter gel pen on paper.

Above, you can see the silver details shining in the bright summer sunlight. Goths in hot weather, anyone? Below, it’s hanging out on a little shelf with the C and my collection of Endless pewter figurines.

Sharpie Week: Spiderweb
Sunday, June 17th, 2012
Sharpie Spiderweb sketch by Amy Crook
And so Sharpie Week comes to a close on a Goth sort of note, with a little spiderweb out of my sketchbook done in black fine point Sharpie.
I hope you are all having a cool and relaxing Sunday, and that the weather apps aren’t lying to me and today is cool for me, as well. Whew.
