I draw a lot when trying to think. Last week’s trip to the @gettymuseum and the Bestiary exhibit hit me right in my illuminated manuscript place and I’ve spent the week (including during Game of Thrones) filling in the grid. It’s part meditation on things seen, part wonder at the care given to each animal by people who had possibly never encountered many animals, part me realizing (again) there are many ways to fill a page. #illuminatedmanuscript #bestiary #penandink #drawing #journal #leuchtturm1917 #fountainpen
