Nice. I love lettering and flowers. I want to paint flowers all over my life.

The other week I was thinking about projects in primary school. We were always encouraged to do fancy lettering for headings. Tracing Gothic lettering etc., all the calligraphy styles.
Did any of you nerds do stuff like this in the 1960s at school?

No.

Did bookbinding and marbling though. And mixed ink for the class – powder and water and mixy-mixy, make a mess.

No gothic lettering or book binding from my school days, but I do remember doing marbling and mixing ink.

Interesting…I remember marbling and the smell of Indian ink.

In my packed away books I have one on bookbinding. When I was at the bookstore I often worked near the sale tables. So I would grab the art and craft ones from a certain publishing house. The deals were too good to resist.
I miss my books.
