The Calliarts for October is working bee for the Exhibition, in which we will be creating letters to decorate the exhibition hall with and to show the range of calligraphic styles available.
Today we will have fun drawing and painting large
letters for use as decorative flags to brighten the hall walls. Black and white
paper will be supplied. Bring any ideas or think about your favourite letter
and how good it will look in the hall. Ideas will also be supplied that can be
traced if you are not too sure how to go about things. Letters can be as fancy
or plain as you like they just need to be colourful.
