Welcome to Introduction to Calligraphy!
There are many different styles and ways to create calligraphy. This workshop teaches how to use a dip pen and ink. While covering the basics, I take a meditative approach to teaching. I will explain how simple breathing techniques can help with not only creating beautiful calligraphy but also quieting your mind and relieving overall stress once the session is over.
This workshop includes:
- In-person instruction
- A workbook that covers the basic strokes, the lower case and uppercase Copperplate Calligraphy letters, how to put words together, and extra practice exercises to complete at home
- All necessary materials-- participants will bring home a calligraphy holder, nib, 1/2 ounce jar of ink, mechanical pencil, nib wipe, and final product to show off on decorative paper
- First drink free!
