April Artist of the Month: Lifein.letters

VersaChalk Artist of the Month this April - @Lifein.letters


Tell us a little about yourself. How did you get started?
I’m a born and raised Oregonian and started lettering as a hobby when I was in high school. After attending a few local classes and practicing my Letters over the years I was able to develop my current writing style. Modern faux calligraphy is my favorite way of lettering and to accompany it I’ve been teaching myself how to create modern florals. My favorite part of lettering is seeing my clients reaction when I bring their vision to life. 

What do you love most about being a lettering artist/calligrapher?
Eventually my hobby turned into a business and now I enjoy creating menu displays for local shops, helping brides execute their wedding vision with signage, and taking custom orders for keepsakes like Jean jackets. 
My favorite project to date is a mural I created for a local coffee shop!

What do you like to do in your spare time / Fun facts about yourself!
In my spare time I love antique shopping for home decor and new materials to write on and designing stickers and digital projects on my iPad in Procreate! Currently, I’m planning my own wedding and will be tying the knot in June! I can’t wait to do my own wedding signs!
