I am a big fan of hand letting, chalkboard artists and traditional sign painters. maybe because I have been a guild-juried Calligrapher. This bloke, Gordon Fox, reached out to me as followup to one of my chalk posts here on FixturesCloseUp. So I thought I’d spread the word that such outstanding craftsmen still exist with this Blackboard Bloke on a Bike post. And his travel by bike is Eco-friendly so his business model is amazingly up to date, even if his media is “old school.” CLICK the thumbnail for a quick look here then read about his business directly at Blackboard Bloke on a Bike. Why not invite Gordon “across the pond” to lecture here about British lettering and chalk traditions.
