Gone from my sight, that's all!

This is my latest piece for a client who heard this poem read at a
very close friend's memorial service.... It's very beautiful, by Henry Van Dyke.

Here it is .. framed and in the happy recipient's home.

This is a close up....
All done on paste paper.... with gouache for the blue lettering as well
as Copperplate Gold for the gold lettering.

Since the moment I started working with Trish, I knew I made the right choice. She was so accommodating and kind - not to mention truly talented! I do not live in the same city as Trish and yet it was extremely convenient working with her. I emailed her a PDF file of my invitation to see if she could try and match the writing. She went above and beyond my expectations! She was flexible and obliging, even when I threw some curve balls her way! My envelopes were SO beautiful and I could not stop looking at them. I received so many compliments and inquiries about who I used for my calligraphy! Trish even sent a sweet (and of course, beautiful) handmade card to my family thanking us for working with her. My husband, my family and I are so glad that we chose Trish. ----Katie P 2012

What a relief!!! We knew we wanted something uniquely special, but weren’t quite sure exactly what it should be. We met with Trish and she knew immediately what we needed and how to accomplish it. The end result was stunning. Her work goes beyond Calligraphy, I would consider it art. We will be looking for reasons to use her talents again. Thank you Trish!!!---Bill P. 2011

Trish Taylor is an outstanding artist who has dedicated a great deal of time and energy in developing her calligraphy and art-making skills. She has been the driving force behind an ongoing study group that meets weekly, and which has given CCS members the opportunity to use their lettering in a variety of projects, including books, broadside, contemporary decorated letters. Bravo, Trish, for all your accomplishments--many of which have not even been mentioned here.--Sharon Z. April 19, 2011

Trish is an excellent calligrapher and person to work with. She is timely and does beautiful work. Trish was also an effective president of the Capital City Scribes, growing the guild under her presidency. ---Bailey June 14, 2011

I had the pleasure of working with Trish in a high-pressure customer service department. Trish was always a professional, pleasant and expeditious in handling customer situations. Her ability to multi-task and maintain a pleasant disposition in a high-pressure position is a true testament of her character. ---Grace June 19, 2011
