Claudio Gil

I love calligraphy. Over the years I have done a little here, a little there. Sometimes decorative, sometimes practical. Some of the work I have seen by other calligraphers is so stunning it defies words. But this guy beats 'em all. Claudio Gil. If you are interested take a look at his blog: http://lagrafia.blogspot.com I came across his work by chance. Chrysti at Art by Chrysti did a post about a new book, 1000 Artist Journal Pages, and I looked it up on Amazon.com. Taking a look through the book on their online reader I saw his pages and was blown away. His blog has links to sketchbooks and videos. I will be treking his blog for some time, I feel.

    Thanks for the link Gillian. Amazing stuff. His writings are almost more like abstract art than letter forms.

    Hi Gillian,
    Thanks for showing the work of Claudio Gil! I was sent a link to you from Seth, from The Altered Page, who knew I'd be interested in Claudio's work. Awesome! Your site is lovely, and I promise I'll be back to look around some more. For now, it's waaaay past my bedtime!
