Calligraphy Flourish for Valentine's Day

©Jane Farr Calligraphy & Design LLC

Wishing you a Happy and Flourishy Valentine's Day!
For this heart, and the one below, I did the original penwork with Moon Palace Sumi and a Zebra G comic nib. I then scanned it and played with it in Photoshop.  After months of computer troubles, I finally relented and bought a new computer.  I now have full blown Photoshop. I had been using my old version of Photoshop Elements. You don't know how relieved I am to still remember how to do the few things I learned in my Photoshop Elements class from last year. phew!!!!

Have a great weekend! As I type this the temperature is still in the single digits, but at least it is sunny!
On Monday from noon to 2pm, I will be doing some on-site calligraphy work for Macy's at the Castleton Square Mall location in Indy (fine jewelry department) as part of their Heart of Haiti project.  
Read and watch more about Macy's Heart of Haiti project by clicking here.
Maybe I will see you this Valentine's Day at Macy's!
