Calligrams

Take a look at this cool Etsy shop I found this morning
http://www.etsy.com/shop/jonijames
Joni has some really cute calligram prints like this chihuahua.
 I love me some chihuahua! :) My childhood dog was a chihuahua poodle mix and to this day I believe she was the best dog EVER (and I've know some really great dogs)

I didn't know when I created this little bird that it was a calligram. This bird a day project has me learning new things all the time!

  1. I love your bird calligram! Thanks so much for featuring me on your blog. It's a funny thing, I remember making a calligram years ago but didn't know much about them at all at the time. Now I'm obsessed! I've always been a fan of Picasso's work too, and recently discovered that his good friend Guillaume Apollinaire is known to have created the very first documented calligrams using his own poetry.
