June Calliarts - Italic Capitals

 Dear Members and Followers,

To quote a famous song "I simply must go, baby it's cold outside" is the perfect segway to our June Calliarts. It's cold outside so you simply must go to our afternoon of calligraphy. 

As a follow-up to  previous Italic calliarts, our afternoon this month will be centred on Italic capitals with Gloria Scott.

We will look at:

1) the basic capital letters

2) a subdued flourished entry as an alternate choice. 

Requirements

·       Usual calligraphy equipment (ruler, pencil, water etc)

       but particularly:

·       A3 bleed-proof paper pad.

·       Broad (chisel) edged nib pens either Speedball (or other brand) nib sizes 1, 2 or 3.

·       Ink or gouache, water pot, paper towel.

·       Coloured felt tip pens, felt tip broad edge pens.

·       Most importantly, your slope board (if you don’t have one, they are available at the hall).
