I believe that when we leave a place...

Sorry this took me so long to put up today, but it took longer than I expected to finish. I was going to write some fic/drabble, but I wasn't confident in my character voices -having not watched the show in several months- so I went a different route. I've been getting into calligraphy and using quotes from lyrics or tv shows, and I really thought this would turn out nice. I plan to get it matted and framed, to hang on the door to my apartment.

This was hand written and inked by me with a fountain pen, not a calligraphy pen, in approximately 9 hours. Feel free to save it to your computer or print it out or whatever you so choose, I just ask you do not claim to have created it yourself.

I had a second one of these with a nice border that I was hoping to have finished for today, but I will have to try and post it during the free for all, as it is far from completion. (My apologies, Amicitia.)

The quote, in case you don't remember it, is of G'Kar, in episode 520 - "Objects in Motion."

do forgive the small green dot on the left of the image, it must have been something on the scanner that I didn't notice.

Lovely :) They just got rid of a place where I used to live (they turned it into offices for secretaries, so some secretary is in the room I live in for two years) and that quote is exactly what I've thought every time I've walked by that place. Lovely.

Thank you! I recently moved out of the house I grew up in and into an apartment, and since my family moved out of the house as well, I understand what you're going through. I think of the quote often myself because of it. :)

That's just lovely, and a real work of art. I used to do calligraphy that way, and I know how much work it is. You've done a beautiful job. That's one of my very favorite G'Kar quotes too! Thank you.

Thank you very much. :) I haven't been doing calligraphy for very long, but to me it's worth the effort.

Oh, that's just beautiful. And 9 hours - talk about a labour of love. :) Thanks for making this.

:) Since I only recently started calligraphy work, it probably shouldn't have taken so long, but I don't mind. Thank you!
