Béatrice Machet # 11 (for the Beam series)


Hello to all, I post this text (to be read counterclockwise direction) "in advance" because I'm heading to a poetry festival and won't be available for a while.

  1. I'm loving your tiling' graphic lay-out (text blocks) Béatrice . I think your page design is working so well here in solid modules like these stunning shapes - fitting so well into our dominate screen/page format (rectangles of course). I like it all.
