The Touch

THE TOUCH OF YOUR HAND is from the first line of a poem written by my dear friend Jay.  I wanted to experiment a little with raised lettering but in a tighter formation.  I used an alphabet from Tom Perkins’ excellent book ‘ The Art of Letter Carving in Stone‘ to create this piece.  Its been completed in slate.

The touch of your hand

It was forgiveness and just a dream

A dream so exquisite

It surpassed all else.
