All Lamb & Lion Studio notecards are 5 x 7 and come with envelopes. Some envelopes are off-white and some are colored. Most of the cards are printed on an warm-white vellum cover stock. A few of the cards are printed on coated stock. Poster dimensions are noted in the titles. The Earth Pledge is 18 x 24; others are 11 x 14 or 8 x 10. The Earth Pledge comes rolled and bagged; the other posters and prints are packed flat.

Love is Patient and Kind was the first poster I made and had printed way back when. It is hand- drawn and lettered in ink. It's been popular for various reasons . . . one reason is that many people use this quote at weddings. It is a beautiful expression of love's true nature.

You are a Child is another hand-drawn and lettered design. The card and poster have been a perennial favorite. The words are the first few lines of the poem Desiderata which was written by the American poet Max Ehrmann in 1927. Many copies were circulated with the inscription: "Found in Old St. Paul's Church in 1692." I am not sure how that myth began, but the language is so timeless that it could be from any age.

I made The Earth Pledge image 20 years ago. Its meaning is still current and still needed. I still often get requests from people who have seen this somewhere and want one. Veterans for Peace in NH and ME used the image for the book covers they produce for high school students.

Faith, Hope and Love is another example of hand drawing and lettering in ink. The angels were based on my three daughters. One of my sons made a photocopied edited version of this card which lived on the refrigerator for a long time. It showed the picture of the three angels with only the words "Endure, These three."

|
The Moment . . . I love this quote from Goethe. It is such a supportive call to action, literally. As the card instructs, all that is needed is to BEGIN IT.
|
|
Nurture Nature . . .my cat, my dog, my son, a tree . . . Trees don't belong to people. Neither do dogs and cats and boys. They are ours to love, to nurture. Nature is ours to nurture.

Imagine . . . as John Lennon sang, "You may say that I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one . . ."
|
|
Small Things . . . done with great love. This was drawn from a photograph I took of friends of mine, mother and daughter. Wonderful gardeners, lovely people.
|
|
Peace on Earth Begins at Home . . . the inside reads: Home is where the heart is . . .
The baby in the picture (the son of a friend) is grown up and studying computer graphics. He is amazingly handsome! |
|
Peace is Possible . . . hand-drawn and lettered. I have been told that peace is impossible, and I have been told that this is not a positive enough affirmative. Which just goes to show.
|
|
Shine . . . drawn on the computer. Actually, I think I drew the face with ink on paper and scanned it. We usually think of the sun as the shining extrovert, but moonlight is subtle and lovely.
|
|
Wondering . . . I'm still wondering. If you can keep it going all the way through wanting, thinking, fearing, longing, and even loving, you'll get to being, which is a state of perpetual wonder.
