Workshops

Teensy, Weensy with Julie Williams

Dear Members and Followers,

We are spoilt for choice for lettering courses and workshops in February. Another one to add to your list is 'Teensy, Weensy' with Julie Williams.



We will discover the most successful ways to ‘write small’ on paper using a variety of nibs and other tools. We will turn to some of the pages from the beautiful Mira Calligraphiae Monumenta created in 1561-1562 for inspiration. Students will draw on their knowledge of classic scripts such as italic, roman and foundational hand, as well as scripts in the Mira Calligraphiae as the basis for their lettering styles. Beginners are very welcome, however they should have a basic knowledge of how to use a chisel nib with ink and one style of calligraphic script. A series of smaller “postcards” will be made by students to keep for future reference.
