Our Story

Hi, I’m Maura Gorman! The owner, artist and head creator at Dainty Scripts. 

Dainty Scripts was started back in 2019 after many years of creating unique signs, paintings, murals, and custom gifts for friends and family. As a licensed art teacher and MassArt graduate, I wanted to create a business that was one of a kind and would bring happiness to others. My love and skill for personalized art helps Dainty Scripts create special products that can be cherished and passed down by families for years to come . 

After having my son in June 2023, I decided to take a step back from teaching middle school art full time to be home. You can find me in the studio off hours , or working on-site jobs around my husbands schedule. Dainty Scripts allows for the flexibiliy I need right now as a mom.

Dainty Scripts has taken many creative twists and turns over the past few years too. I am open to new challenges and taking on bigger jobs outside of the walls of my studio . 

My work varies in sizes in shapes, from large scaled murals to custom illustrations, to the 300+ hand lettered canvases we created for inspiration in hospitals during the Covid pandemic. Dainty Scripts embodies all projects creative - big or small.

Dainty Scripts wouldn’t be possible without the help of close family and friends. 

The team includes: Catherine Healy (my cousin & mural side kick!) , Barbara Healy (yup, my mom!), Caroline Keenan, and I need to credit Ryan Gorman (my husband who does so much behind the scenes).

From prepping boards, greeting customers, deliveries, working pop-ups, sourcing supplies, and so much more.  Dainty Scripts could not be where it is today without them!
