Description
The illuminated letter or embellished letter is usually the first letter of a page or paragraph. It is an art form that can be seen as far back as Egyptian times, but is mostly associated with manuscripts from the Middle Ages. These letters were often enhanced by the addition of animals, plants and mythological creatures.
I have been creating a modern day version of this old art form using a combination of watercolors, colored markers, and decorative patterning.
The Fine Art America watermark will not be visible on any purchased products.
