Happy Holiday card for my friend Debra. Card letterpress printed and cute pinstripe lining by Sugar Paper.

Copperplate Play

A copperplate variation for the the New Year.

Christmas Gift Bag

I love giving gifts and using my calligraphy to enhance packaging!

Vanity Fair Oscar Party

Every year I personalize menus for Vanity Fair's Academy Awards viewing party. This year it was at Spago. The photo on the right shows how the table setting looks with the menu and a small booklet they put together that contains all the Oscar nominees. Part of the job is to be on site before the event in case any last minute calligraphy is needed. It's always fun to go to the venue and see how pretty it comes together!

Script Table Names

I just completed these table name signs for a client. Since the pointed pen can only make a line so thick, after doing the lettering with the gold gouache, I went back in with my pen to make all the thick lines thicker. The style is a variation of copperplate.

Pink & Black Wedding

Another beautifully designed invitation by Sugar Paper. For this one I was asked to provide the calligraphy for just the bride and groom's names and words to highlight the other two pieces. We also used just the initials of the couple for the return address and response envelope. I like the simplicity of this invitation suite and love the addition of the pink letterpress on the borders.

Pretty in Pink

A new color combination on this invitation letterpress printed by Sugar Paper. I'm in the process of illustrating a map for the same client and will show it to you when it's completed.

Program Cover

I just got a last minute request to do a program cover from Tova Glenn at Brighten My Day. The wedding is in less than two weeks! The verbiage is an excerpt from the couple's ketubah. I used this copperplate variation to coordinate with their invitation which is shown below.

Custom Invitation and Postage

The lovely Tova Glenn, owner of Brighten My Day, an invitation designer in Atlanta, hired me to do this invitation for her client. I've been getting many requests lately for this particular calligraphy style. In addition to the invitation, I created a monogram for the couple. This is the first time I've seen my calligraphy used for custom postage!

Seating Envelope and Embossed insert

This is an example of the other portion of the job shown below. I think the embossed monogram on the insert card is really a nice touch.
