Free handwriting

The garden is in hibernation, the household is done and a day off is on the cards - these are the precious moments when I can try out new things on a whim. 

It doesn't always have to be classical calligraphy. Here I took a song lyric ("Native Son" by Bryan Adams) and tried to put it into a suitable form. I used one of my cola pens to write letter after letter in a very simple capital font. I had brewed the brown ink myself from tree nut shells in autumn. The paper is a 300 g/m2 mixed media paper in the size 42 x 60 cm.
