Angela Swan
 Calligrapher
Angela trained at Roehampton Institute from 1985 until
1988, achieving a Diploma in Advanced Calligraphy. On leaving Roehampton,
she was invited by Donald Jackson to work as his assistant at his studio
in Wales, where she gained valuable experience.
After 3 years, Angela left to set up her own workshop locally, having
fallen in love with the area (and having discovered that some of her
ancestors had originated from a nearby village). During this time she
also taught calligraphy and had some of her work included in several
publications and national exhibitions.
From 1995 and the birth of her daughter, Angela devoted
herself to motherhood whilst occasionally undertaking private
commissions. In Autumn 2002, she was delighted to join Donald and his
team of scribes and artists on The Saint John’s Bible Project. |
