Despite my illustration of a monk typing "calligraphy", nothing replaces the prestige and beauty of fine hand-lettering. Practiced and revered for centuries, it is the selection of choice for life's most honored and precious moments. Though computer-generated lettering can satisfy everyday business needs only hand-lettering and art can provide the level of aesthetics, quality and range of creation required for special occasions and individuals.

Since 1971, we've served the needs of VIP's in government, business, and associations and individuals in the private sector with our fine hand-lettering and art creations. Only traditional materials designed to last for centuries are used. This includes museum quality 100% rag acid-free paper that is prepared to resemble the animal skins of calves, sheep or goats, once used as the parchment. The alphabets we use span 2000 years.

Esteemed recipients of our awards include: President Gerald R. Ford Diana, Princess of Wales H. R. H. Prince Andrew CNN News Correspondent Bernard Shaw David Brinkley Walter Cronkite Television News Journalist Renee Poussaint First Lady Nancy Reagan First Lady Barbara Bush First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton Senator Mark O.
