Intermediate Modern Calligraphy Workshop

This three-hour, early intermediate workshop covers some of modern calligraphy's most fun, popular techniques. You'll learn how to write with white ink, achieving opaque lettering on dark paper. Emphasis will be placed on connecting letters, plotting layouts, and playing with letterforms. Both upper and lowercase letters will be covered, with special guidance on how to create your own unique style. We will also cover troubleshooting techniques and business tips for common issues faced by working calligraphers.

Whether you've taught yourself or learned from a teacher, if you can hold a calligraphy pen and write full words then this class is right for you. You do not need to have years of experience. (If you've ever taken one of my beginner workshops then you definitely qualify!) Don't underestimate your skill!
