I have always had a passion for all things crafting and art (thank you mom!) - using any creation time as βmy space.β Of all the art projects Iβve delved into, calligraphy has been the one that excites me the most. The process of determining suitable fonts, creating my own fonts, designing layouts, and experimenting with decorative styles is one that I find ~soothing~. My experience and expertise
are self-taught, through trial and error with different mediums and tools. I am fortunate to have experienced a vast diversity of cultures during my childhood, and try to incorporate those different artistic styles when designing. So how did a hobby turn into this? I was asked by two of my closest friends on the morning of their wedding to help with some signs. I just couldnβt say no at this opportunity! Although I didnβt have the time to plan and perfect them the way I would have liked, what came of on-the-spot custom creations with limited tools helped me realize that I have a skillset I could be sharing with others. I have a passion for calligraphy, one in which I pour my focus, dedication and perfectionism into. My work is all done by hand, and as such will never be βprinter-perfect,β but this is how I see the art of calligraphy that I love to be.
