What Keeps me Busy
Like now…
I’m about to leave for Switzerland to give a workshop. My hostess is the equally talented as aimable Swiss-French calligrapher, Denise Lach.
Right after that, I’m off for a tour in Australia. My good Aussie friend, Janine Mitchell, organized a series of workshops in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Hobart (Tasmania).
So… hectic times, but before I leave I want to get some things done for what I’ve come to call my church project.
I’ll tell you more about that later, just for now I want to disclose a little bit by showing some pictures.
One shows a small fragment of lettering which will cover part of the floor of the church (actual size will be more than 20 meters) and another shows a still from a film we’re making. Last picture is a fragment of a commission I did today, for which I had to write and compose 8 words.

I’m happy to discover this blog to follow your work. I’ve admired your work for a while as it represents the direction I want my calligraphy work to take. I’d love to know when you might be in the USA again around Oregon or Washington as I’d love to take one of your workshops. is there a place to follow your teaching schedule?

I’m curious about the film you’re making. You work looks wonderful in the still you’ve shown. The video of Jaime Lerner on city planning is really great. Have a good time in Australia!
