Hello,

I was surprised to see my calligraphy in your post. Please credit me for my piece, which is entitled « Te Quiero Verde ».

Thank you

You put « Art by Raoul P. Martinez under both images. The piece on the left is by Ward Dunham. The piece on the right is by Raoul P. Martinez. Please correct this.

Thank you.

Hi, Todd,

It looks fine now. Thank you for having your team make that correction. I just wanted to make sure that Ward and I got properly credited.

By the way, where did you get the photo of my calligraphy? My website ? Instagram? Facebook ? It’s an old piece.

Thanks, Raoul- The great Carl Rohrs, editor of "The Alphabet," kindly gave us the image (with the Friends of Calligraphy's use permission). It's a great example of another blend of broad nib and pointed pen. Amazing that after all these centuries, people are still inventing new forms of scrivening...
