Show & Tell / identity display (for advertising)
« on: August 16, 2019, 09:45:47 AM »
I did a version of this pencii drawing around 40 years ago. I used it for while in advertising but dropped it when I realised than some viewers were thinking that it was  for real! Recently, I did this fresh drawing, updating it for the passage of time and I started using it again .

I fact, I'm no monk. I've been married for 56 years with two children and four grandchildren!

The writing is in the Roundhand (Copperplate) style of the 18th century English Writing Masters.
