This is one of my calligraphic works using a piece of my own writing dedicated to my relationship with Gaia, the living Earth. In essence, it is a simple prayer and dedication that I say at my Nemeton (Sacred dreamspace) every morning upon waking.
These works are created by combining my handmade paper images with digital illuminated text using photoshop. The main characters and Celtic designs are drawn by hand, scanned, converted to vector images, then treated the same as the other text in order to retain a uniform, consistent, look. The whole lot is then transferred to a scanned piece of my organic handmade paper to create a background resembling a page from some ancient illuminated book (including page clasps).

I like it – both the work and the sentiment
Truly beautiful in both form and sentiment.
