Single Sisters Typeface:

A font I designed for use on signage, publications, adverts for Single Sister House: a historic museum in Old Salem, NC. The story of the work I did on the project can be accessed here…


"Boundaries" quotation:

Typeface design is contrasted by "free" writing. The movement and "accidental" qualities from working ink on paper in free motion.
Boundaries was a commission.


Logos based on writing:

Macy's was done back in the 80's, but the others are recent.


More writing commissions:

Yale visit to China 2007: Certificate from President of Yale to the President of China. Carried out on hand-made paper in ink, gouache and gold 23k.
Once finished, The Yale piece was bound in leather by Monique Lallier and presented to President Hu Jintao of China.

The other pieces here are ink (or paint) on paper, using either pen or brush. (all commissioned pieces)
