One of the most practical and versatile tools for calligraphy, the small brush pen, is the perfect tool for new starters and experienced calligraphers alike.
Join us for this fun and informative class where we will learn a fun calligraphy script to use for everything from journalling to card making.
WE WILL COVER:
Once we learn how the brush pen works, we will practice the basic calligraphy strokes and learn to combine them into letters. We will cover all 26 letters of the alphabet and progress to writing words and short phrases. At the end of the class we will explore some easy modifications to the basic strokes to help us create our own individual modern calligraphy style.
