I became a professional freelance calligrapher thanks to a tutorial course by Norberto Chiesa at SLC. I have exhibited, taught, and authored books. Here I'm exhibiting designs from my newest book "Song of Songs, The Bible's Great Love Poems in Calligraphy." The whole group of over 3 dozen modern renderings will be shown next winter at SLC.
