Hi there! My name is Anna & I’m the artist behind The Woven Pen.

 As a self-taught hand lettering artist, I've dedicated years to crafting my own signature woven style. Woven lettering is a free-flowing style that does away with traditional lettering techniques to create something new and fresh. I don’t use strict guidelines for my lettering--you won’t find traditional cap lines or base lines here! I don’t focus on individual letters as much as on making a cohesive piece in which the words weave together and fit like beautiful puzzle pieces.

My watercolor paintings are crafted at my kitchen table, often with my three-year-old daughter, Lucy, painting along by my side. I love using vivid colors, and I enjoy how the watercolor contrasts with the bold black lettering that I utilize in my designs.

For my lettering, I choose words and phrases that are uplifting and encouraging to those who consume them (with a little quirkiness thrown into the mix as well!). My work is wholesome, kind, and designed to spread sunshine to all who encounter it. My goal is to have my work feel like a warm hug to everyone it reaches.

I’m so grateful for your interest in my work.
