Bonjour - Hi!

​

​

First, who am I?

I'm Erin and I'm a 30-something full-time calligrapher in the Montreal area who loves the written word.

​

Why did I start calligraphy?

I fell in love with the art form years ago and when I got gifted classes, I knew I needed to pass along my passion to others! You can read a bit more about my start here.

​

Have you had formal training?

Yes! I started learning in 2015 with Joy Deneen, who is amazing, I have also taken workshops with Barbara Close, Rachel Yallop, Marco Chioini, Christopher Haanes, former Chief Whitehouse Calligrapher Rick Paulus, and Yves Leterme.

​

Are you a solopreneur?

Yes! Sort of. I do have an office assistant named Bruce, but he's pretty useless. (Not to worry, he's just my green-cheeked conure and he can't read...hence useless).

​

Do you also work in French?

Bien sûr! Je suis billingue, mais ma langue maternelle est l'anglais. Si vous voulez communiquer avec moi en français, n'hésitez pas. :)
