“cleanness of line and sureness of curves” — what a wonderful way to describe it, Berry!

I’de buy four and hang them close to the ceiling upsidedown.
I thinkl it’s great! Love the cleaness of line and sureness of curves.

The A scroll letter is cool, but the others are less letter-like and more just scrolly. Which is ok, but not really my thing.

The one that I like best is the And Per Se And one. I love the Per Se font because it’s kind of Deco and I do love Deco.

The anagrams were very cool, although the font was rather unremarkable. They reminded me of posters from the 70s (because I am ancient).

No, no. We’re not old and unaccomplished, Tina, she’s startlingly young!

But can she create art while simultaneously making dinner, holding a toddler and paying the bills?

Hmm. Not crazy about her scroll letters and I can’t even identify why, maybe just too busy, although I like busy…and her website gave me a serious headache.
On the other hand I did like a lot of the other type experiments.
Then I read her bio and saw how young she is-
Now I feel old and unaccomplished!

Thanks Chris and NB, both for your opinions of the artwork and your validation that the website navigation is more annoying than helpful. And elizasmom, if I had the extra, I’d buy one for me and for you.

I liked the font on the phonetic dictionary version a lot. I would seriously think about getting that if I had a little extra to throw around.

I like the curlique-looking ones, but none of the others really hooked me. And the way the thumbnails change to a block of color when you hover over them reminded me of that website/pop-up that came out for the 2004 (I think) presidential election that asked you to click on your candidate… but it would only let you click Bush. If you tried to click on Kerry, the words would scoot away from your cursor, and remain just out of reach. (Not exactly the same, I know, but it made me think of that.)

Well since Leslie asked for comments from non professional designers… that certainly fits my category.

To answer your question… There is no chance of me spending money to hang these designs on my wall. Why you might ask.. well hard to put into words.. but this “contemporary” art looking thinamajig just doesn’t suit my style.

Leslie, you are correct.. The website nav is truly horrible.

See.. I do read your blog. :)

Ah, yes, the phonetic alphabets. But did you like the content or did you like the artwork/design (or both)?
