This is my latest batch of icons. I think I'll do a couple more and then work on making some page borders. I think page decorations and borders are important and serve a functional purpose. I've seen some badly done books that wasted a lot of space with extravagant borders, but well done books have distinctive borders that help the reader to navigate through the book (i.e. it's easy to flip to the right section when each section has its own easily distinguished look). I'm getting a lot more comfortable with Bezier curves which is the tool I really need to draw the way I want. Ideally, I'd be able to use some kind of pencil sketching action but I don't have a tablet. Bezier curves offer me the next best thing: I can make a rough outline and then poke and prod it into the shape I want.
