    I really enjoyed this class. It made me get loose and be messy with art in a big studio space. I didn’t have to worry about making the painting perfect but just have fun with it. I also appreciated the BYOB addition to the class.
  • Modern Illumination Capitals

    Anonymous review on 2/3/2019
    Great opportunity to learn from a master calligrapher, Joanne Wasserman.The focus of the class was on students developing ccontemporary interpretations of traditional illuminated manuscript capitals. Joanne emphasized the visual “stories” which might be told through using decorated letters as a springboard to the imagination of the artist. Even though illuminated script is a revered, centuries-old art, Joanne encouraged us to explore our own expressive style in the class projects. Materials provided were good quality and the instruction and inspiration by the teacher first rate! You definitely don’t have to be a calligrapher to take this class—only to have a willingness to put your own spin on a a beautiful traditional art form.
