Are there amongst you a person I would call perhaps an "academic artist?" or indeed anyone crazy enough to want to give it a go!
I am trying to work out a sort of dictionary for describing the various decorations found on Honiton bobbins. I have been trying to use heraldic terms, for example, to describe the various sorts of lines the decorators used, It sort of works, but seems a bit high powered for what I am after. But let me give you an example: The decorators love "bricks", but they have at least 7 types of (bricklaying!!! )Brick designs. I would like to be able to say that a bobbin has a . say: The top of the shaft has an "Open brick" design or perhaps "wide brick". whatever for the 7 types. Other than bricks there are 9 design groups. Triangle, hearts, diamonds, lines, Foliage and flowers, living creatures, human artifacts, ships humans and others. Some are easy to name. Of course I can send any "crazy" individual who volunteers all the designs. OK, I am not holding my breath! Finger are crossed Not sure if I should end by saying Your friend(!)
