I love red pen flourishes. The emphasis is on making every aspect of the book, including the lettering and margin decorations, as beautiful as possible. Gothic script, or Textura, the kind of lettering still most popularly associated with medieval manuscripts.

The Revelator is a mosaic I made in 2020, while I was grasping to hold on to the last moments with my father, and then after.

Pain and Beauty, working together.
