Amongst the various things I do, I've been a calligrapher for a very, very VERY long time. 

I've always loved the letter form and while the other kids my age were collecting baseball cards or playing footabll I was copying old english blackletter from bibles or drawing letters from magazines or posters.

I started out with the Speedball Lettering guide and some beat up old nibs a friend left around and I've made a living with it in some form or another for many years.

I used to get snatched up for Ad Hoc signage needs because I could hand letter a sign board all the way up to the day that the computer and Microsoft made it possible for anyone to turn out a halfway reputable "Wet Paint" sign !
