FLWright house

 


I came very close to tossing the exemplar for this style. It's *Pop Art* -  you may find it online by Googling *Pop Art font.*  My first few attempts were not very good. Then, I thought I would try one more time with a much larger marker and I like this one better. I still don't know what to do about coloring in the letters. Markers show the overlap and my attempts to color in with gouache have not been going very well. There is no address because Troy only remembers to sign up half the time. Spoiler alert, Troy. If you sign up - this is what's coming - but with different stamps.

For many years, I have contemplated keeping track of the different styles and to whom I have sent what. I finally made a chart in June - and it's been very helpful. There are a dozen people who have not gotten this style. I'm not sure you will - but, at least I have a good chance of not sending repeats to anyone. Nobody has ever complained that I am too repetitive -- but, it's helpful to me to have a rough idea of who has received what.

I need to re-do the heading - because some of the descriptions do not even make sense - 



Here is a delightful video about a Frank Lloyd Wright house in Carmel - right on the ocean. It has stayed in one family - and the host is not a professional presenter - but has some charming stories. He refers to women who are artists as "lady artists* which is unusual - or maybe old-fashioned. But - if you like FLW homes - this is a good one.
