What started as a small group of students around my dining room table five years ago has blossomed into monthly calligraphy parties that fill up in a jiffy. I lead classes on creative adventures with a modern approach to pointed-pen calligraphy. Instant friendships with fellow classmates and glasses of bubby help unlock the door to your creative side!
If you’ve never picked up a calligraphy pen before, this is the class for you. Basic skills are introduced, such as dipping your pen in ink, understanding ink flow and pressure, basic script lowercase letter forms and developing your unique lettering style.
1 oblique pen | 3 pointed pen nibs | pot of black ink | washi tape | tracing paper pad | practice alphabets, grids, and several other handouts | extra goodies and surprises
This class is intended for those who have already taken the beginner class or taken a course in the past using an oblique pen and pointed pen nib. Classes focus on the uppercase alphabet, using colored inks and mixing gouache, writing words and connecting letters, and touching on addressing envelopes.
