The Art of Lettering
The advantage of drawing letters is that we can incorporate nuance. Nuance, rather than slavish precision, is what breathes life into our letters.
Peter Thornton
Hello, I’m Betty!
The Lettering Lounge started in early 2025 as a creative space to teach calligraphy in the Columbus area.
I personally fell in love with calligraphy back in 2017 immersing myself in the art of writing using brush pens, pointed pen, and digital lettering.
In 2024, I attended the Created Conference, a Christian creative based community in the Columbus area. It inspired me to start teaching in-person workshops as a way to connect with others in the community and share the joy of calligraphy.
Hand lettering holds a special place in my heart as it became a way to express words of gratitude and dwell on Scripture and hymns. I hope you will be inspired to pick up a pen and write something beautiful!
Follow me on Instagram @muffinister!
Muffinister is a pseudonym of mine, inspired by the illustration of a hangry muffin by BrainMeats over at Threadless.
It is a playful word that combines “muffin” with the suffix “-ster” used to describe someone who is a big fan of this delectable pastry.
