Welcome!

Picture
        "A picture is worth a thousand words."
       Yes, but a word could also paint a thousand pictures. What if you could have both? I use words and paint and images to picture an idea that inspires me. Maybe some of my prints will inspire you, too.
       Maybe you are looking for a calligrapher to write what inspires you, to commemorate your special event, or to address your invitations with a personal touch.  I occasionally do custom work, or I can refer you to other professional calligraphers through the Portland Society for Calligraphy.
       Primarily, I am a teacher. If you are willing to inspire a budding calligrapher, you can honor one of my advanced students with your business. I will work with that student to ensure a successful experience for both of you. Please see a few examples of student work.
        Gandhi said, "There is more to life than increasing its speed."  The fact that you are considering the ancient art of calligraphy shows that you have slowed down enough to value the beautiful, the enduring, and the human. Maybe that is what we were created for?
