hello to everyone,
I haven't posted up anything in quite a while, but I thought I might share this piece that I just finished.
It's a 2" x 3.25" sterling medallion for a masonic friend of mine. JPCole Past Master Jewel Don back.jpg JPCole  Past Master Jewel 01.jpg

The font for the back is Tangerine. I'm just beginning to work on my lettering. This font was fun and super easy to cut with a 90 degree graver. The font on the front was a different type, and it really needed a flat graver to make the flairs. It just did not turn out the way I really hoped it would. It looks like I'll be spending a lot more practice time with the flat graver and my lettering. I picked up Sam Alfano's dvd on lettering, so I've got study material. I also did the layout and spacing of the text in Corel X8. I finally broke down and bought a full new copy for the vector platform. I'm loving it, and working with it as much as I can to learn more.
