Submitted by the Event Organizer
Margaret Morgan is a calligrapher and lettering artist with many years of experience. She was lured into calligraphy by learning italic handwriting at school at an early age. Her art college training in graphics and typography remain a strong influence in her work with pen, brush and drawn lettering.
Author of four books on calligraphy and illumination, contemporary ways of using gold and devising new letterforms are a continuing fascination. Margaret also leads workshops in the UK and abroad. Her aim is to encourage students toward a more experimental approach to lettering, working from a sound basic knowedge of traditional letterforms.
She is a fellow of the Calligraphy & Lettering Arts Society and a full member of Letter Exchange.
