Holly V Monroe (Studio #16)
Mission: To feed the soul by making meaningful words beautiful.
As a lettering artist aka calligrapher, I’m in the business of making well-loved words come alive in a visually expressive way. They may dance across the page in delight on a greeting card, convey dignity or gratitude on an award, inspire heartfelt emotions on a broadside or bring an old world look to a family tree. Throughout the years, I’ve incorporated detailed decoration and illustration into my designs, which brings greater interest to the words.
A specialty that sets me apart from many calligraphers is the ability to create designs on genuine parchment along with the application of 23.75 k gold leaf.
Over the last 44 years, I have designed for the greeting card and gift market, lettered on walls while up on scaffolding, designed in-depth family trees, logos and commercial lettering, created high-end hand lettered and illustrated one-off art books along with many other creative and unusual projects.
NOTE: I have one set of stairs on the inside, 2 sets on the outside both with railings.
