After studying Art History at University and working in art galleries in Melbourne I went on maternity leave to have my daughter and made space to explore my own creativity. Calligraphy is the perfect combination of the things I am passionate about; the written word, visual art and family. I have always been drawn to the aesthetic qualities of this historical artform and as I refined my own skills I also fell in love with its ability to connect people. Calligraphy shines a light on the words that move us- even if they are the names of your friends and family on place cards on your wedding day. I have had the honour of penning wedding vows, love letters, poems and songs. Always, it is an expression of love, celebration and connection; the most important things.
