Ketubah Artist Bio
Celia Lemonik is a Long Island, NY-based calligrapher and graphic designer who has been creating original one-of-a-kind ketubot since the 1970’s. Her work explores the inherently decorative nature of the Hebrew alphabet and her use of bold color, symmetry and rhythm reflects the sensibilities of many different folk art traditions.
