Hand-drawn calligraphy in a bold brown Uncial script that reads: "SOUP OR STEW, MY LOVE, FOR YOU!" followed by "P.S. THERE'S DESSERT" in red ink. To the left, a steaming bowl of soup is partially visible. To the right, a whimsical pink and silver snail carries a large silver spoon.
The dessert was Bread Pudding with sugar crumble on top.

Uncial-inspired hand-calligraphy on dotted paper repetitively featuring the word "EFFORT" in three large horizontal rows. The top row is in dark brown ink, the middle in black, and the bottom in bright orange. In the spaces between these large letters, the word "effort" is written in small, colorful cursive script using pink, blue, and purple ink.
Sometimes all it takes is a little effort.
Uncial script done in 3.8mm, 4.5mm and 6.0mm calligraphy flat nibs used with brown, black and orange inks.
Cursive in gel pen

Uncial-inspired calligraphy on dotted paper featuring the word "REJECT" in black with a pink offset shadow. Below it, a decorative border of interlocking black and blue zig-zags separates the top half from the word "ACCEPT," which is written upside down and mirrored. The word "ACCEPT" features a layered chromatic effect in red, pink, and blue.
Some days I overwhelm rejection with acceptance, and some days I protect myself with rejection.

Calligraphy (pilot parallel pen) and colorful initial letters (watercolor)
I am the wind on the sea. I am the stormy wave. I am the sound of the ocean. I am the bull with seven horns. I am the hawk on the cliff-face. I am the dewdrop in sunlight. I am the sun’s tear. I am the beautiful flower. I am the boar on the rampage. I am the salmon in the pool. I am the lake on the plain. I am the defiant sword. I am the spear charging to battle. I am the god who put fire in your head.
Detail. A lot of dots

GOSPEL BOOK OF ST MARCELLINUS OF ANCONA, C6. DIOCESAN MUSEUM OF ANCONA This is not merely a Gospel but also a relic, as St Marcellinus of Ancona, bishop of that city from 551 to 577, ended a terrible fire in Ancona by reading it while the fire raged all around him. When the Gospel itself caught fire, he slammed the book shut and miraculously the fire went out all across the city. This explains its terribly damaged condition. It is temporarily on display in Rome in an otherwise tedious exhibition on popes and saints of the Marche. These pages are part of the Gospel of John, written on parchment in uncial capitals. Uncials developed from rustic capitals, whose uprights and straight lines were excellent for writing on papyrus, but parchment (dried stretched sheepskin) was more conducive to the use of rounded forms, and thus uncial script came into existence, even as early as the C3. Until the Carolingian Renaissance of the C9, the uncial reigned supreme as the principal calligraphic text style.
For #EpigraphyTuesday we're getting to know #Roman handwriting in late antiquity, the #uncial #script that we tend to associate with Irish #manuscripts but which was widespread, with regional variations, across the empire and #Europe, until about 900 CE. #ClassicsBluesky 🏺
