Quote project -
I've got the calligraphy done. It's not the greatest, but I was also having some issues with the parchment wanting to move even when holding it down. I need more practice in working with real animal parchment.
I've also started to transfer the drawings for the illuminations over to the parchment.
I did also go by the local hobby store with a framing department in it. I use to work in the framing department and while some things have changed over the years, some things are still the same. There were two new girls working and they didn't have a clue what to do with me when they saw I had a blank piece of "paper". All I was interested in was a mat and two pieces of foam core board to sandwich my project to help protect it when I'm not working on it. The assistant manager on duty was also once a framer with me, so he got a good laugh out of his new girls.
