Eye magazine article

Eye is a graphic design and visual culture magazine that was first published in London in 1990.

I recently read an article in eye magazine about a man called Pete Hardwicke who is a sign writer in London and has been for many years.
The variety of signs that he is capable of doing is rather extraordinary. Ranging from the classic serif typefaces to more complexed forms of Calligraphy, Pete has made his mark on a significant area of London.
The fact that he remains humble, does not sign his name on work and appears to not care for any recognition or fame is what was surprising about the article. He seems to love what he does and he is great at it.
