Who Knew the Alphabet Could be so Interesting?

I came across this site earlier today.  It is entitled, "The Alphabet Forest".  The page of the site is a collection of collages, designs, and pictures with the primary subject simply being the alphabet.  Ceclia, the curator of the site, explains in the paragraph below what "The Alphabet Forest" is.  Below this you will find a collection of alphabet artworks.  It is wonderful to see the world of calligraphy and art coming together in such a simple, yet almost profound (in some cases) way.

Take a minute to look through the works of fellow calligraphy artists.  Can you find some inspirations and new ideas?  Does a particular piece or style stand out to you?  I think my favorite is probably the one seen here:

What do you think?

After you have look through these great pieces, browse through Cecilia's site.  She has a few other resources and calligraphy exhibits too.  If you like dragons, perhaps you will enjoy "The Dragon's Cave". 

I have never quite known the correct term for the myriad of wonderful designs I have oftencome across, created from the twenty-six letters of our alphabet. In this small corner of cyberspace -the choice is mine, and I choose to call them 'alphabet trees'.Here we will begin to plant the Alphabet Forest.
