Dear Members,
Don't let winter give you the blues, come along have a fun time with Copperplate Decoration at Calligraphy Southscribes with Valerie.
Copperplate decoration is about learning the shapes/ marks a flexible pen can make and will add to your calligraphic skills.
The
shapes are used to fill in letters or any specific shape eg. animals
and flowers to make a pleasing picture. Easier to do than traditional
flourishing and use of colour gives a modern feeling. A very relaxing
way to enjoy a scribes Calliart afternoon on 13 th July.
