Are you searching for the word, "Calligraphy" -- the art of fine writing or script.
The term calligraphy is derived from the Greek kalligraphia, meaning “beautiful writing,” and is applied to individual letters as well as to entire documents; it also refers to an aesthetic branch of paleography. In Islamic countries and in India, China, and Japan, calligraphy is done with a brush and has been a highly respected art form for many centuries (see Chinese Art and Architecture; Japanese Art and Architecture). In the West, calligraphy eventually evolved from the earliest cave paintings, such as those (35,000-20,000 bc) at Lascaux, France, into the abstractions that became the familiar letterforms of the alphabet.
If so, here is a link to Calligraphy websites around the world.

Maybe you are looking in the wrong places. Be open to new opportunities and experiences, and don't expect perfection. Be willing to work at any relationship and give things a try, even if you are not certain. And sometimes Mr. Wright was there all along, but you just hadn't noticed him yet. Best of luck.
