Janey Westin is an Edina, Minnesota-based stone carver, sculptor, and calligrapher. She began her career as a professional calligrapher after a formative year as a Rotary Exchange student in Japan in 1975-76, and started carving letters in stone in 1985. Her lettering work evolved into full sculptural practice across many types of stone.
