Eileen Gomme is an experienced calligrapher and a member of the Calligraphy and Lettering Arts Society. Most of her work is done on commission. To a large degree self-taught, she has had the advantage of periods of study with some of the country's most eminent calligraphers and illuminators. Much of her time is spent demonstrating, lecturing and teaching, hoping always to arouse awareness and appreciation of good lettering.

In 1984 she founded Norfolk Scribes Calligraphy Club for anyone interested in lettering, whether to learn or just to look.
