Eric Marland

Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Eric moved to Europe in 1978 and took the foundation year and Restoration course at the City and Guilds of London Art School where he discovered a love of letter carving. After a brief apprenticeship in Bruges, Eric set up a workshop in London, later moving to Cambridge where he worked at David Kindersley's Workshop for almost five years.

Since 1999 he has run his own workshop “in a deconsecrated chapel in the middle of a beautiful burial ground on what was until recently the outskirts of Cambridge.”
