Border illustrations, illuminated letters

Many of you might be familiar with the style of illuminated medieval and renaissance books where decorative borders and illuminated letters were used to enhance the beauty of the text printed therein. Many such books, if not all, were written by hand and hand-painted.

For the purpose of this project we will use scanned versions of each border illustration and illuminated letter, which Sahaj artists can contribute, and ultimately we will add the illustrations to the text of Shri Mataji’s talk and create a beautiful printable version, in A3 format or bigger. We will always have the electronic version saved for further copies.

We aim to use the same style of borders for each speech, and we will inform you which are the letters most needed for the illumination.
Please see here a few examples of such borders and illuminated letters. You are welcome to take inspiration from these or create your own. Please contact us before starting your art creation.
