Many people hear calligrapher and think of a person with nice handwriting, but Emily Poe-Crawford knows that it is more than good writing - it's art. Emily is a hand letterer and calligrapher and sells her pieces on Etsy, an online store. This summer, she took off time from her schedule to talk to WFDD Radio Camper Quinn McCrea about her work.
Emily Poe-Crawford approached me from the opposite side of our meeting place and I could tell immediately from her face to her clothes - a gray t-shirt, shorts, and sandals - that she had a very relaxed personality. We sat down at a table and I asked where Emily learned to write so neatly. She said her amazing handwriting comes from her mom who also had neat handwriting. Emily explains to me how her experiences as a child led her to her career.
