I’ve added two more punctuation marks in addition to the interrobang (or Cuile symbol) in my punctuation key art series.  The ampersands were tricky and went through many modifications before getting stuck to the canvas.  Those are made from just function keys.  The hash tags (or pound sign, or number symbol, or tic-tac-toe board) were also tried a few different ways before being stuck down with just the number keys.

Next up, I’m going to tackle the dreaded @ symbol.  It’s a complicated shape to deal with in such a small space.  Wish me luck!

I’m working on a new series of punctuation marks on 12 x 12 canvases.  I’ll do the positive and negative versions of each mark on a lightly tinted canvas.  I finished the first set today – interrobangs on a light, light blue canvas.

Also on the punctuation list: pound sign, @ symbol, ampersand, bracket, brace… really any punctuation mark I think of.  I’m open to suggestions though!

Finished another piece for my Etsy site yesterday.  I’m trying to get several pieces made to fill up my shop.  It’s pretty barren right now.  Anyway, this one was inspired by Jeff Clark’s eyeglasses.  Don’t ask me why, because I don’t know.  I was just thinking of those eyeglasses and then made this.  Anyway, I asked Jeff what his favorite color was, and he said orange.  So the background is a subtle range of oranges. I used gray keys because they really stand out against the orange.

Upon seeing this, Tanner immediately requested that I make him the old OSU block logo in the orange/gray color scheme.  But then, Tanner wants to keep almost every one of these I finish!
