It's a surprisingly big field. Largely divided into:
1. More artistic, commissioned works
2. Wedding calligraphy, envelope addressing
3. Teaching
I principally taught. Was too much of a perfectionist, and would devote more time than was economically viable to commissioned works. Though my art is on a couple wine labels in Napa.
