“I am no longer an artist, interested & curious. I am a messenger who will bring back word from the men who are fighting to those who want the war to go on forever.
Feeble, inarticulate, will be my message, but it will have a bitter truth, & may it burn their lousy souls”

Hello, my name is Frank and I'm a lettering nerd. Type, print, letter carving, and anywhere that good letters can be found. I like good letters and good letter spacing.
I've said it before and sadly it still stands, not all Roman letter(space)ing is good letter(space)ing.

Fibonacci provides the clues here, turning chaos into order with balance, beauty, grace, and proportion. The organ staircase at St. Mary’s, Studley Royal, designed by William Burges, echoes this harmony in the golden section.

This remarkable Roman silver tray was discovered by a nine-year-old girl called Isabel Cutter on the banks of the River Tyne near Hadrian's Wall in 1735. Known as the Corbridge Lanx, it shows Apollo, Artemis and Athena gathered around a shrine. It is now held at the British Museum #FindsFriday

Today's the feast of St Catherine, by tradition a 4th Century martyr, and one of the most popular of all saints in medieval days.
Here she is with her sword and wheel in the Burrell Collection, Glasgow, an early 16C Flemish devotional statue. 1/3
