These projects are mostly basic calligraphy, but I am now offering some simple letter illumination! Iâm able to work in both copperplate (pointed pen/âscriptâ) and broad-edge hands, and am most practiced in blackletter (âgothicâ, broad nib).
Mostly, Iâve done silly video game-related quotes and memes, but am willing to do anything not specified in my âwill NOT doâ within reason.
Here are some examples of my work, more of which can be found in my calligraphy tag!
I have a good variety of inks and mediums, including solids in most basic colors, a few pearlescents, and even watercolors, and this will likely be updated soon with a swatch guide! If I donât have a particular color thatâs desired, I can likely obtain it with some additional time.
What I WONâT do:
⢠Hate speech of any kind
⢠Explicit sexual stuff within discretion, fetish
⢠Thatâs about it, but I reserve the right to decline if anything else uncomfortable.
Pricing:
This pricing may be subject to change in the future to reflect the significant amount of work that goes into these and to not undercut other artists, but Iâm going to try to keep pricing low as I gain experience.
For reference, here are my Rhodia Dotpad A5 and A4 notepads next to each other!
A5 (smaller) sheet
⢠Base rate: $4 for dot grid paper, $5 for blank
⢠Per additional page: $1
A4 (larger) sheet:
⢠Base rate: $5 for dot grid paper, $6 for blank
⢠Per additional page: $1.50
Illuminated letters are an upcharge of $.20 per letter.
For an additional $1 on any, I can physically mail the completed work to you with an address! Otherwise, I will just send a scan of the completed work to you digitally.
I will also discount $.50 if you donât wish to choose your ink color.
Timeframe:
While an individual piece may not take long, I am a disabled creator and also an alive human person. Your piece may be quicker, but please give a buffer time of about 3 days from the time of commission.
Please send communications through dm on here! Iâm able to accept payment via Venmo, PayPal, or Ko-fi.

Y’all in the American SW and west Mexico better check the national hurricane center and your weather for this weekend and next week.
Hurricane Hilary is about to make landfall and that whole desert area is supposed to get a years worth of rain or more. Death Valley is supposed to get twice the annual rainfall. Severe winds, massive flooding, and landslides are all strong possibilities.
This is gonna get ugly. Please spread the word. This is a majorly anomalous event and people may be unaware of the threat headed their way.
Flash floods are definitely gonna kill people, so here’s your regularly scheduled PSA:
Desert soil does not absorb a significant amount of water. It reaches maximum saturation very very quickly, and all the rest of the water rushes downhill. Even if you can’t tell that the ground is not perfectly flat, the water can. And it will move. Quickly. No, faster than that. Nope, still faster. If you try to cross moving floodwater, you will get swept downstream and probably die.
Do not try to wade in/cross flood water that is any deeper than the thickness of the sole of an average athletic shoe, no I am not kidding, the water will get deeper literally while you’re standing in it.
This goes for cars, too. I’ve seen entire vehicles getting swept downstream in flash floods because the driver thought they could cross the “puddle” and Found Out.
Stay safe, y’all.
also if you’re going into water intentionally (cleanup, obviously as things RECEDE), PROTECT YOUR EYES. Flood water is NASTY AS HELL and you will be getting a tetanus booster right off the bat if you end up in the ER for any reason.
Related to the above: After wading in the water, get somewhere with clean water and wash every inch of your body. The water being nasty means: There can be gases, oils, other harmful/irritating contaminants, there can be sewage (probably will be tbh), and then (And I’m sorry for this) animals will be dead in the water around you. Things like squirrels, birds, etc. They will be decomposing in there. You’re basically wading in a soup of the nastiest shit you can imagine. So, post clean-up in the water: Shower, then GET YOUR FRICKIN’ TETANUS BOOSTER.
Also, if you have a vagina, be extra careful. If you think yeast infections are nasty, they’re nothing compared to contact dermatitis of the vulva, and the vulva is EXTREMELY sensitive along with the vagina. (Source: Me. I had an allergic reaction to a laundry detergent and it was the WORST experience of my life, I can’t imagine how much worse it’d be in THAT kind of water.)
There can also be EXPOSED LIVE POWER LINES UNDER THE WATER. You legitimately have no idea what is in flood water, what is being carried, what kind of debris is at the bottom. If you can at all avoid going into the flood water, DO NOT GO INTO THE FLOOD WATER.
