Join me and learn how to create beautifully joyful lettering using bold tip brush pens in this modern, relaxed and informal style of calligraphy - this time in beautful Norfolk!
Modern calligraphy is creative and expressive way to create lettering - and using a brush tip even more so. In this workshop you will learn the calligraphy rules - and how to break them - to create your own unique, fun style with bold broad tip brush pens.
It’s all about enjoying the process, and without having pots of ink to contend with, a whole lot less messy!
You will learn the essentials of brush calligraphy - how to position yourself, your paper and how to hold then pen, and then start with beginner brush strokes and mark making. You'll be practicing alphabets, upper and lowercase letter forms, and then eventually joining them into words and phrases.
Using the techniques you've learnt you will create your own hand lettered pieces that you can frame, pop up on a shelf, or give to friends and before long you’ll be creating cards for every gifting event in the calendar!
During this joyful half day session you will be making Calligraphy quotes and birthday cards with bold/broad tip brush pens.
All brush lettering materials are included and for you to use both in the workshop and take away with you so you can keep practising and creating at home - and as well as guiding the whole class with demonstrations and instructions, I will be there to provide you with one-on-one tuition and troubleshooting any issues you may come across. A broad tip specialist brush pen, lettering guides, upper and lowercase alphabet templates, and calligraphy quote templates are all included + white card, folded cards and envelopes to complete your brush calligraphy final pieces.
