Quote of the week…

Inspirational Artist of the week: Norman Gilbert
Norman Gilbert (b.1926 Trinidad – d. 2019 Scotland) was one of those special artists who found a distinct immediately identifiable visual language. With it he describes a life and its embraces, quiet domestic afternoons seeped in a patchwork of pattern, colour and memories.
After studying at Glasgow School of Art, Norman Gilbert widely exhibited across the UK, with work held in numerous public and private collections. Having featured in The Times, Vogue and The Scotsman and the main subject of two BBC documentaries, he leaves behind an extraordinary legacy of a life in colour.






Hand lettering inspiration of the week: Lester Carey
Lester Carey was a New Orleans sign artist whose work has been found on churches, corner stores, neighborhood bars, and other commercial buildings around numerous neighborhoods of New Orleans for three decades.
