Adolf Berndt combined crisp modern letter forms with decorative elements from illuminated initials. Using masking fluid and water colours the outcome was a fresh, very individualised result.
We will study his artwork and techniques and work out a way of producing something inspired by this great artist. including touches of gold!

After the initial designs there was the option of exploring small monoline letters, or designing a more complex letter using pattern where appropriate.

| B: Ingrid Lotter Everyone used different sources for their letter forms. Some people "borrowed" a Bernd-colour scheme while others used Bernd's colours as a starting point for their own colour schemes. |

| Heleen de Haas The aim of a course like this is not to emulate a master, but to study and analyse the master's work, then integrate what has been learnt. Gradually, a new visual vocabulary and understanding of design will evolve. |

While Jill used a traditional Uncial's W with stylised grapes, Anne-Marie gave a modern "e" a three-dimensional feeling by subdividing the stroke of the letter and adding texture.

Judy used complemetary colours very sucessfully in this piece.
Jenny Meyer explored the J in lots of different ways and will collate them into a little handmade book.
