M2 Ch1 Fantastic Fonts

2.1.1 Find fonts on your computer.  An easy exercise for me because of past experience so a good intro.  I can see the plain sheets as a particularly useful reference. I was disappointed that the tissue paper would go through my printer when firmly stuck to a backing sheet, masking tape just wouldn't do it.  I did like the picture backgrounds though.  The fushia was my photo printed on a draft setting first.


2.1.2 Topsy Turvy Printing.  The black ink over the blue (pale green background) is too heavy.  The blue/green stripey background was made using a new big fan-shaped brush. (I like it!)  The pink background is a mulberry silk paper.

2.1.3 Collecting words and letters.  Pages from my sketch book.



From my postcard collection.
2.1.4 Recycled papers.  Some pages from my collection - junk mail and envelopes, leaflets, recipe cards, envelopes inside and out, newspaper, bags, notes, assorted letters, computer printouts, maps, postcards.
