Original Pieces

 

John DeCollibus has produced hundreds of pieces during his career, including penmanship of various sayings and verses, bird flourishes, and custom work for special occasions.  We are pleased to present some select pieces of his work in this gallery.

Most original pieces are available for purchase.  Watch for occasional eBay auctions for a chance to acquire one of John's original works.  John is also available on a limited basis to do original commissioned work for special events, ceremonies, or other occasions.  For more information on purchasing original work from John DeCollibus, please contact us.  For wedding invitations and related products, click here

Bird flourishes are very common in offhand flourishing and represent both the talent and discipline in the art of the master penman.
