Calligraphy and Illumination
by Veda Crewe Joseph

I have made an in depth study of Medieval and Renaissance illuminated manuscripts and have learned to imitate many of the styles. I have long studied calligraphy as well as drawing and painting. Historically many different artists would have worked on the different aspects of these pieces. I have learned to do them all, however, my greastest strength has been in creating the minatures.
