Drawn from Real Field Scans & Rubbings

Every custom design begins with real historical reference material, not generic Halloween clip art or made up cemetery motifs.

I study gravestone rubbings, field photographs, and scans of actual markers to recreate the proportions, symbolism, lettering styles, and surface details that gave each period its distinct character. 

Take a look at the library of available Victorian symbols, based on actual field scans.
