Art Demonstration with Rachel Diamond Calow
Rachel fell in love with letterforms as a teenager. She started working as a professional calligrapher at sixteen — inspired by her own dyslexia and the way different scripts could evoke entirely different emotions. Lettering became her language.
Over the years, she has created calligraphy for weddings, rituals, certificates, and private commissions — and taught classes for students of all ages. She now serves as co-president of Masscribes, the Massachusetts Calligraphy Guild.
Her artistic life has recently expanded to include a new body of work: richly illustrated sketchbooks created during a four-month world voyage. These travel journals blend ink, watercolor, photography, and handwritten memory, each page shaped by curiosity, movement, and reflection. Many of the paintings are directly inspired by her own photographs taken on location.
Rachel brings her eye for detail and intuitive scene shaping to the Guild, offering an inspiring glimpse into how she weaves photography, observation, memory and color into a cohesive visual narrative. Find Rachel on her website at www.racheldiamondcalowarts.com and on Instagram at @rdcalow.
