Hi, I'm Kate

I'm a modern lettering artist based in regional Victoria and I'm the hands (well, mostly just my left one) behind Hardinghand.

My creative process always starts on paper using brushes, ink, nibs and pens.

My initial love affair with lettering and calligraphy began thanks to my Mum. I have vivid memories of Mum sitting at her dining table using the old-school broad-edge calligraphy nibs to create beautiful lettering, and ever since then I've been hooked.

My lettering is a little more modern than back then, but the genuine love of the creative process and contributing to your special occasions is still there.

Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or ideas.
