This 4-week calligraphy clinic is an extended version of the ‘Intro to Casual Copperplate’ class. We will cover the basics of using a traditional dip ink pointed-pen, basic shapes and strokes of the upper and lowercase Copperplate letters, discuss letter spacing and practice writing words and phrases. We will also introduce intermediate level changes that can be made to the basic alphabet, take a more in-depth look at flourishing and elementary layout and design of a simple presentation piece. This class is perfect for beginners looking for more than a simple introduction to the script as well as intermediate writers wanting review and further guidance. These in-person classes will be recorded (professional quality not guaranteed!) in the event that a student misses a session. Cost includes all supplies (including a higher-quality pen holder than presented in ‘Intro’ classes) and detailed hand-outs that students can use for at-home practice.
