HELLO, MY NAME IS DEBBIE AND I’M AN ARTIST AND CALLIGRAPHER IN CALGARY.
My creative journey started in 2016 and over the years I have polished my calligraphy and artistic skills from workshops, classes and conferences to offer the highest quality work to clients.
For weddings, I want to help couples design meaningful invitations and incorporate calligraphy to create a tangible heirloom to treasure. In a fast paced digital world, we've lost the aspect of creating something organic. My clients have told me their guests were stunned and felt special because they received unique wedding invitations in an envelope with beautiful hand addressed calligraphy.
I also work with brands, PR and corporate clients offering live on-site calligraphy (English and Chinese), bottle painting, engraving and illustrations. My clients range from the high fashion, beauty and lifestyle industry, such as Chanel, Diptyque, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Tiffany & Co., GUERLAIN, Jo Malone, Holt Renfrew and many other other corporate brands.

fun facts about me
1. I am a water person and happiest to sit on a beach and listen to the ocean, or scuba dive in the tropical waters.
2. I am a dog person and mini dachshunds are always my favorite dog to be around. Our beloved Duke kept everything in order and barked when things got too noisy. Our beloved Pepper was the one who enjoyed lots of naps by the desk.
3. Favorite places to travel are Japan, France, Italy and Greece. Stationery and art stores are always my favorite to visit, followed by museums and restaurants.
4. I speak 3 languages: English, Cantonese and Japanese. I studied in the Osaka/Kyoto area for a year under the university’s exchange program. I learned so much living in a foreign country and navigating daily life in Japanese. The experience left me with such an impression that I’m still studying Japanese.
5. I love all things Disney. My childhood dream was to work in their animation department. I still love flipping through books to see the sketch concepts for their animated movies.
