Philip Surey
I originate lettering by hand in a number of mediums; lettercarving in stone, slate and wood, brush lettering and traditional signwriting.
Often I use the brush to set out inscriptional work, which ranges from formal Roman to my own casual 'Phil Sans'. All lettering is designed by brush or pencil to suit its purpose and place so creating a unique response to each commission.
Graduating in 1996 from the City & Guilds of London Art School, Surey spent short spells assisting Richard Kindersley and Ralph Beyer before establishing a busy workshop in London.
