Calligraphy Shroom T-shirt

Ellie Heywood is a Leeds-based calligrapher and lettering artist, specialising in blackletter calligraphy. Her practice looks at distortion and abstraction of letters, experimenting with traditional calligraphy and painting. The process is not dissimilar to a meditative practice, pursuing thoughtful strokes while maintaining rhythmic character. Working on the designs with London Nootropics allowed a little more flexibility and creativity within the calligraphy, moving away from the rigidity of traditional blackletter.
