About the Image(s)
Here is a calligrapher finishing her work. She works with a real calligraphy pen with its own special nib and real ink (the kind that stains your clothes!). She is my daughter, and she actually has her own business doing this! I asked her to pose for me with the special card for Mother's Day. The card is on my refrigerator door now. She was writing these cards for attendees at a special event at Powell Gardens (the botanical garden for Kansas City). I posed her hand on my coffee table next to window light in my livingroom. Attached is a closer view of the pen in her hand. Iphone photo with no editing except sizing for our website.

Calligraphy is an amazing art. I say this as someone who failed handwriting in grammar school. When I thought of dexterity, calligraphy hadn't come to mind. But now that I see your picture, this is a wonderful "dextrous" image. While your tighter crop has some merit, I do enjoy seeing the entire message. Fabulous!   Posted: 07/18/2025 04:55:21
