Description

Introduction to Modern Calligraphy - Brush Lettering

Calligraphy isn’t a lost art, it’s just an art that you haven’t learned yet. In this class you'll learn all the techniques you need to make the thick and thin lines that creates the beautiful letter forms of modern brush calligraphy.

No prior experience is required! The skills you’ll learn can be applied to cards, invitations, signs, or just to give your penmanship a little pizzazz. You’ll even leave with your own hand-drawn greeting card, a brush pen, and a workbook to continue practicing your newfound skills. And don’t worry about what you need to bring, we’ll provide all the necessary materials to get you started.

In this workshop you will learn:

  • Lettering tools and how to use them
  • Basic strokes of modern brush lettering
  • How to compose both upper case and lower case letters
  • How to connect letters to form words and phrases
  • Tips and tricks for perfecting your lettering practice
  • How to create a lettered card for your final piece

Comfortable clothing, apron, beverages and snacks, a blanket if we're sitting on the grass.

    There was no class and no refund or offer to reschedule. I would prefer to reschedule rather than get a refund. I’ll wait to hear from someone.

    Excellent session; Jade was terrific - highly skilled and knowledgeable - one can say she is a "master" level teacher and craft person; very engaging, encouraging and caring about the students in her class. She even makes herself very available after class for additional questions and tips. This was my first course house experience and I thought it was top notch. She inspired me to really want to advance my own skills in modern calligraphy through daily practice and work.

    I loved Jade! My only complaint was it was a bit difficult to see her walk through her demonstration if you weren't sitting next to her. I think I would have picked up more if I was next to her.
  • Modern Calligraphy: Brush Lettering

    Fun, small (10-ish people) class with lots of hands on practicing. You get a workbook and a brush pen for yourself. Note: this takes place at a cafe in flatiron, not at the wework in midtown like coursehorse has listed.

    Scarlet was a Very good instructor. Meeting in a fast food restaurant, however, is not great.
  • Modern Calligraphy: Brush Lettering

    Jade was awesome - kind, patient, encouraging, and best of all, passionate about what she was doing. Highly recommend this course to others who want to start learning how to brush letter!
