A Hand-Lettered 20th Anniversary Gift

I was commissioned to write out this list of dates, meaningful to a couple that were celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary. It was to be part of a gift from the husband to his wife to celebrate the occasion.

His vision was of script with flourishes—bold enough to be of visual interest in a frame on the wall, but not overly ornamental or garish. The entire piece was created in black ink, with some small details in metallic rose gold.
