According to the instructions, I first covered the letter with a thin layer of gold and added a border of red ink after that. In the end, here's a result that confirms I'll probably never master the art of illuminated calligraphy.
To imagine its real-life size: the letter itself measures about an A4 page.
A little contribution to the February collection of Create in Austria - artwork created by Austrians and/or in Austria.And a combination of red on a parchment-coloured background I like much better than the above one ;)
