About Helen Wallace 

Helen is a hand lettering artist based in West Sussex, she works in a variety of styles using watercolour, ink, brush pens, paint brushes and nibs.  

Helen developed a love for type when designing her wedding stationery back in 2017 and calligraphy quickly became her favourite pastime, evolving into a passion that she wanted to share with others.  

Shortly after getting married, Helen set up her own design studio Wallace Lettering, where she now designs custom lettering for corporate brands, bespoke wedding stationery, greeting card designs, signage & chalk boards.  

She loves hosting workshops, a great social way to introduce more people to this wonderful and versatile lettering world. It's also a great mindful way of switching off, relaxing and relieving stress.
