Wallace Center Commission 2010 Life's Work

I was commissioned by the Wallace Center at RIT to create a lettering piece in honor of Library Director Chandra McKenzie.
This poem, by Ms. McKenzie, is about the process of shedding layers as one finds ones' purpose and meaning in life.The piece is on permanent display on the third floor stairwell of Wallace Center.

The piece is done using micron pens, calligraphy nibs and brushes.

Entire piece on the left and detail on right.
