Great! Next, how many words are there in your quote?
If you don't want to fill out the form that pops up, that is fine- you can always edit it later to add your content. You can also email me to let me know what you'd like written at arabic.calligrapher@gmail.com.
Now lets choose how you would like it to be presented!
Option ONe: Loose, unbordered and unmounted. Mailed to you in a tube.
If you'd like the piece unbordered and loose, you're all set and ready to check out!
Option Two: Bordered with handmade ebru paper.
Typically, I border the piece with decorative marbled paper, made from my own handmade paints that I float on a thickened water. Together we will decide which pattern and color scheme works best for you.
I can also add illuminated corners to the piece, with handpainted tezhip and gold leaf borders.
Would you like it with corner illuminations and Gold borders?
Would you like it framed ?
I make the frames by hand in my woodshop from solid cherry, milled in Bloomington in 2010. Walnut is also available.
now All that is left is to decide the calligraphy style!
At the moment I am only using traditional scripts for original works. I made this decision because I would like to do works that let the calligraphy stand out and speak for itself.
I personally recommend Sulus, as I think it is the most elegant and graceful style of calligraphy.
All done! You're all set and ready to check out. If you didn't fill out the form telling me what you'd like written, you can fill it out on the checkout page or email me at arabic.calligrapher@gmail.com.
Thank you!
