Hello, my name is Christy Toney and I am a full-time Chicago wedding calligrapher. I am the founder of Calligraphy by CT (formerly CT-Designs - circa 2007), and have a decades long background in art, with a B.A. from Columbia College (Chicago). I've also received professional training from Chicago's Art Institute, The American Academy of Art and The Palette and Chisel. I specialize in mirror calligraphy/lettering having done my first seating chart back in 2013.
Background
My calligraphy training began quite early at Lindblom Technical high school on Chicago’s south side. I also spent 15 years as a print production manager, so my entire career can be characterized in some form as "ink on paper".
I teach Modern Calligraphy workshops and conduct one on one teaching sessions as well. Please follow my blog and social media for scheduling information as I love to instruct and connect with other lettering enthusiasts.
Finally, the primary focus at my company has always been you. I've been doing this seriously since 2007 and my main objective at the end of each season is a satisfied clientele. I'd love for you to join that number.
