Illustration Friday: Alphabet
Language is the dress of thought. ~Samuel Johnson
Here’s another thought to address…
From lexicographer Laurence Urdang: …an “enchiridian of arcane and recondite sesquipedalian items will appeal to the oniomania of an eximious Gemeinschaft.”
Translation: Certain exceptional types like to buy collections of big, unusual words.
The above alphabet-inspired illustration was rendered by yours truly with a brush pen, then scanned and modified in photoshop.

Beautiful . . . elegant (I know Sharon already said that, but still!)
I love the background, too. She’s in an emerald rainforest.
