Calligraphy & Lettering
Calligraphy is the art of the hand. It is slow - intentionally so. Letters reveal character and communicate language. The message is in the mark of a stroke and the swoosh of a brush; up or down, round and round, left to right, and right to left - white space bisected by dark.
This goes back to the beginning of time.

“Ros has worked with Wordsearch on a number of projects now, including creating calligraphy artwork for 60 Curzon - a residential building in the heart of Mayfair. She responds to the brief sensitively and within time and budget. She has also engaged with the younger members of our team by sharing examples of her work and process and inspiring them on their creative journeys.”
