Discover the art of modern calligraphy in this beginner-friendly workshop. Under the guidance of Margaret Fu from Wispy Letters, you'll learn the basics of hand lettering, practice writing the alphabet, and develop your unique style. By the end, you'll create personalized hand-lettered art pieces or greeting cards. All tools and materials are provided for a seamless creative experience.
Calligraphy isn’t a lost art, it’s just an art that you haven’t learned yet!
So, you've taken the Modern Calligraphy Brush Lettering class, but now you want more! This is the class to add to your toolbox. You will learn the techniques you need to create the thick and thin lines of modern calligraphy but this time using a flexible steel nib and ink.
Even though this class is a continuation of the brush lettering class, it is still beginner friendly so you're welcome to attend even if you have no prior experience. We will have all of the supplies and materials you need to learn the basic skills for modern calligraphy, such as proper pen handling, how to prepare the nib for the first time use, best inks and papers for dip pen calligraphy, and other materials.
You will leave with a full script alphabet in upper and lower cases worksheets and practice your new skills that 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.
Comfortable clothing, apron, beverages and snacks, a blanket if we're sitting on the grass.
