Introduction	Richard Crookes Born Preston, Lancashire 1960. I have been working as a full time freelance artist since 1981, providing illustrations for the publishing and advertising industries. I took up calligraphy in 1996 and went on to study on the 3 year advanced training scheme of The Society of Scribes and Illuminators. I have since been taking an experimental approach to hand lettering, combining this with digital imaging, paper sculpture and other mixed media. I am currently living in Bangkok and spending happy hours wandering with a camera around this fascinating city.
