The Calligrapher's Process - with Rick Paulus

The Society of Scribes promotes the study, teaching and practice of calligraphy and related arts in New York City.

Society of Scribes, Ltd.

This class meets on Saturday/Sunday: April 25 & 26, 2020. 10:00 am to 4:00 pm
The challenges of placing text on a page in a meaningful way can be a daunting leap for one who has never attempted to do so. This comprehensive studio workshop is designed to introduce beginner and intermediate calligraphers to the process of creating a finished piece. Through a series of independent assignments, Rick will gently guide you through the process of taking your work from concept to completion, using easily acquired meth- ods and processes. Using a review of two formal hands as a launching point, we will move on to explore layout, design, texture, pattern, nuance, and more in the process of interpreting the meaning of text through calligraphy. Guided exercises will introduce the use of watercolor, gouache, gold leaf and a wide range of papers. This is your opportunity to enjoy two days in the studio with former White House chief calligrapher, Rick Paulus. With over 30 years experience in commercial calligraphy and fine-art calligraphy, Rick is eager to share his tips of the trade through the exciting forum of this workshop. Beginner to intermediate. Beginners should be familiar with the use of a dip pen. Knowledge of a formal hand is helpful but not required.
