There is a new calligraphic youtube channel up here
Richard studied to advanced level with the Society of Scribes and Illuminators in the UK and has worked as a professional calligrapher for private, public, and commercial clients for many years.
Latest exciting calligraphic news is that Richard has started a new body of lettercutting work on wood from his own calligraphy and is intended for exhibition, sale and also commissioning in due course.
Thank you for your interest. If you would like to contact Richard to commission calligraphic artwork, please email him in the first instance at rwcrookes@googlemail.com
