Through the history, many artists they would not have been acknowledged, without sensitivity as yours. When you draw you also are giving a little bit of longevity to the Art. They need keep your important role. That’s way that runs this environment.

I always will insist on saying that writing and drawing are generated by the same human engine, or the same cradle: the hand. And our mind chooses the path of one of the two codes to depict what we want to say in each case. Oh darling, I’m grateful for your comments and also for your wonderful work exhibited in your blog. Giant kisses!

Dear friend, some years ago I was learning in a university a course about skills Proficiency in Legal Calligraphy for judicial cases. This teached me the direct link between hand and mind. I published an special post dedicated to my colleagues:
Maybe you could like it.

A lovely post! Did you choose the art works for the calligraphy brush strokes each incorporates? I have always loved the handwritten word, and one day will try my hand at calligraphy.
And what an interesting course! What was the biggest or most interesting thing you learned from the class?
Wishing you an inspired weekend!

Dearest Missy, I’m so sorry because I have omited the answer to your expert email and also so kind
I finished these studies so glad, because I achieved arguing and demonstrate that the graphical repertory of human symbols handwritten, are so limited. So, the same hand and same brain could use the symbol of number ‘1’ or number ‘7’ with repetition for example to depict the grass in a landscape.
Is something so basic as we daily can see a lot of emoticons, that’s is tipography used to make a depiction of reality, and these are using my idea about ‘The ambivalence of signs’. My friend, you’re so clever that our talking was for me a true bliss. Thanks a million. So long!
