Dainty Scripts
About
Dainty Scripts is a Quincy art business led by Maura Gorman, its owner, artist and head creator. Her specialties are hand-painted custom murals, commercial signage and window art, and live event illustration, including drawings of wedding couples and guests made during the celebration. She also makes personalized gifts and custom pieces for homes, from nursery artwork to signs, and one reviewer notes that she works with customers until a gift is exactly how they want it.
Gorman started the business in 2019 after years of making custom signs, paintings and gifts for family and friends. A MassArt graduate, she taught art at the elementary and middle school levels, and after her son was born in 2023 she stepped back from full-time teaching to grow Dainty Scripts, adding kids’ workshops alongside murals and wedding illustration. Parents praise its summer Young Artists Workshop for its use of artist-grade tools.
