My first attempt on ward art :)

The resolution is a bit shitey here, how do we upload images with higher resolutions?
Anyway, take a better look here at my Facebook photo

Ooh, that looks really cool.
I think the best bet with getting a higher resolution image would be to upload it somewhere else (like photobucket) and then do a link.

Hmmm… Good idea, I just dont want it to spread uncontrolably. lol
Now I'm trying to connect the wards somehow and form something similar to Arabic or Japanese caligraphy.

Hmm, i don`t think the wards simbolys words. Its more a picture of somthing, like the cutting warde who seams to be a scissors.

You're right. It has never been explained in the book that the wards represent a sound, word or mean in Thesan or Krasian language. I think it's more about the shape of the ward; that's what makes them magical (somehow).
It doesnt stop me from attempting caligraphic form of the wards though. They may not sound anything, but hey, their shapes are something we can have fun with :)

Both are correct. Wards are individual symbols rather than words or sound representations, but they can also be linked to for cumulative effects, like computer code. They are commonly connected in calligraphy.
The picture looks great! Thanks for posting!

Ahhhh… Peat, you dont know how much that sentence inspired me!
Anyway, these are some of my early attempts on Caligraphic Ward Art.
Out of aeshtetic reasons, I have to adjust the sizes and tweak the forms of wards.
Ward art 1
Ward art 2
Ward art 3
Ward art 4

Hello!!!!
I would like to ask (aspecially the author but also all forum users) about wards and their meanings. I found on the website in creations just 18 wards (rock, flame, water, wind etc) but I am very interested in them. I would like to know if there is more that these???
Thanks for your help!!!
