Designing Faces, Figures, Florals

I'm sure you've seen Linda Schneider's artwork!  If you're drawn to lettering and calligraphic flourishes then you can't miss it.

Quietfire Design now carries Linda's Designing Faces, Figures, Florals and More.  I just love this book!  It's such eye candy.

Here is an excerpt about the book from her website:

"Designing Faces, Figures, Florals and More is an instructional book that teaches how to draw and design beautiful faces, flourishing ladies and fabulous florals. The lessons are taught in an easy to learn, classical style, that uses doodling techniques with graceful pointed pen flourishes. The book is filled with illustrations for inspiration and instruction. It is intended to be used as a workbook so there are designated areas for the reader to draw designs along with the sample illustrations."

I think if you are a "Zentangler", you would love this book!  You don't have to be a calligrapher to enjoy the exercises and inspiration.
Here is a little fun I had recently. I think I need a bit more practice.  And a little practice will make a big difference with this type of thing.

There is no instruction on letterforms in this book - it's all about making fabulous doodles! 
Thank you Linda for creating this delightful book!
