VINTAGE BEE, LEDGER SCRIPT, NUMBERS, & GENERAL STORE LIST

Bees are little task-masters and signify organization, process, structure, community, and pollination. It's Jennifer's new mascot and thus inspired her the create this small 4" x 4" Vintage Bee Stencil.



Jennifer wanted to experiment with letters and numbers from old ledgers from 1916 through 1921. She loves using vintage papers in collage as a layer in her artwork. 

Jennifer writes, "The historical nature of letterpress or financial ledgers is a unique element. If I'm lucky enough to have something handwritten, I feel that's a bonus -- to honor the hand of someone's everyday communication and make it special. I also find it mindboggling with these ledgers that the script was written 100 years ago. 100 years! In one of the stencils, the Grocery Store list, I was interested in learning the variety of items customers would put on their running account: coffee, eggs, sugar, bacon, soap, flour, wire, socks, and fruit (the original ledger also included things like fuses, fish, powder, and shoes). By enlarging the penmanship and overlapping numbers and words, I created these stencils that give a nod to the past. I think they can be utilized as great texture and line work in any art, but specifically for fine art, the Vintage Ledger Script Large 9"x12" lends a renaissance feel."

The Vintage Ledger Script Stencil is available in 2 sizes: Large 9" x 12" L814 and a small 6" x 6" S827. Note that the text is a bit different on each one.
