Calligraphic Performance Event Video

Want to see me working? Check out this beautiful video by Felipe Barral, of the G Channel. Watch ink move magically across the page.

Narrated by Emily Canter, who organized the event Illuminated Letters - this was the second year Friends of the Alphabet participated. I imagine next year will be even more grand.

It's quite thrilling to see all these talented people I've had the pleasure of knowing - seeing their hands up close and in movement. I missed the performance, concentrating on my own work. I'm so happy to see it now. Enjoy!
