The word letter comes from the Latin word littera (“letter of the alphabet").
A Letter can be a written character or a written message. In this blog Letters will be used in both ways, as characters and as messages.
Stenlia is my place on earth.
Letters, books and sketches will be the subjects for this blog. Hope you will enjoy it.

Quote by Tranströmer for Sketchbook Skool
Today I have worked with a short part from a poem by Tomas Tranströmer. It is hard to make a perfect lettering in a short time but I did two different versions this evening. Same text but totally different.
It's quite marked how the second version conveys the idea of the message better - to my mind anyway. It speaks more to me of a forest and the edgy-ness of finding clarity after being lost.
