I saw a lot of illuminated designs and detailed patterns while I was out and I think I went on overload from taking in so much in a week. It&#8217;s also hard to restart one you&#8217;re stopped a project after a while, and this is an example of it. I feel rusty from not doing them for so long after making them daily.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be doing Halloween-ish things for the rest of the month, maybe more because they&#8217;re so much fun to do and I like the practice. If client work slows down I&#8217;ll try to make 31, one for each day of the month.<\/p>\n<p>Serpents appear throughout design and show up in the earliest print books. They&#8217;re iconic design elements, to be sure. Nothing like a cool serpent or dragon to hold a space among big blocks of text. They are also great to use because they can be shaped to suit any space within a design.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.johnmoorehead.com\/flourish\/10-7flourish-JohnMoorehead.ai\">Link to download (.ai file)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-118\" src=\"http:\/\/johnmoorehead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/10-7flourish.png\" alt=\"10-7flourish\" width=\"352\" height=\"352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/johnmoorehead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/10-7flourish.png 352w, https:\/\/johnmoorehead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/10-7flourish-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/johnmoorehead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/10-7flourish-300x300.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m back after a break from doing these and had a hard time restarting.
