Thor and Kris's cala lily invitations, rsvp and thank-you cards.  They had them printed on ivory linen paper, and the envelopes addressed in italic calligraphy.  A fun job.
Congratulations, Kris and Thor!

Copperplate Writing

Copperplate Pointed Pen writing goes very slowly.
I have been working on this order for several days, happy to be doing such a classic style. Sometimes I forget which century I am sitting in as I watch the ink flow out onto the white paper.
(The readable names and addresses are ficticious to protect privacy.)
Congratulations to my clients Maggie and Jake!

Calligraphic Handwriting on Envelopes


These envelopes were written with a monolinear tool, more quickly than with the chisel edge. The flourishes were easier and freer than with the chisel too. I mixed the paint to match a kind of 'eggplant' color, and had the pleasure of working on Crane's paper. I loved how they turned out.
