New Font Sample

I've been working on rebranding Arney Walker Calligraphy. I'm still in the early stages, but part of that was that I wanted to have my own return address either stamp or label. I decided to use my new font for it. Stay tuned to see how it gets used in real life!

FINALLY.....some new fonts

Since IAMPETH, I've been practicing my Spencerian to get it ready to use regularly. I've been working on it for about a year now, but never quite felt comfortable with doing it for a client. I recently had the opportunity to use it for a client on their rehearsal dinner envelopes and it turned out beautifully.

I also had another opportunity to do what I'm now going to call swashy Spencerian (or number 4 on the new font list below) which was basically an adaptation of Spencerian with some additional shading and the difference in height between the upper and lower case was not as great as it is in traditional Spencerian.

I've also added what is basically copperplate script but done vertically instead of at a slant (see font 2).

Can't wait to use these more!

Wedding Photos



I'm taking a little break from the IAMPETH blogging to bring a few photos from the wedding that I both planned and did the escort cards for.



These are photos from my camera, so definitely not high quality, but you get the general idea. It was a stunning wedding and they used white Crane enclosure envelopes and cards as the escort cards. I custom mixed a periwinkle ink to match the bridesmaid's dresses.
