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.
