Dear Members and Followers,
While it may be cold outside, we haven't stopped bringing you another exciting Calliarts afternoon, this time with Glenis Sheather, who will be taking us through the fun of Weaver Script.
When we consider the use of pointed pens we immediately think of Copperplate and its variations. However, a pointed pen can be used for many more scripts and one of these is Weaver Script. This fun script was designed by American calligrapher, the late Gwen Weaver. The script has only 26 letters (no capitals) so can be easily leant in a three-hour workshop. The aim of this Calliarts is to have a fun and relaxing afternoon playing with some interesting letters.
