This blog will be a place to discuss lettering, calligraphy, graphic design and photography, as these are the areas that I work in and enjoy in my small business, Ray Ritchie Design LLC.

I’ve had good intentions for years now of totally re-building my website, but that project keeps getting put off because of the hurdle of learning new software (my site was originally built in Adobe Golive, which is no longer a supported product). I hope to use this blog as a means of frequently posting some new, fresh material, and then just take down the old site and replace it by something which will be more professional and initially, much slimmer. Over time, I’ll then start adding to the galleries there and introducing a photography gallery to complement the calligraphy and lettering work.

In the meantime, please bear with me as I learn to use WordPress. I’ll be playing around extensively with the look and feel of the blog as I learn the capabilities of this software.
