Dear Members and Followers,
We start back in 2022 with Italic for our first Calliarts afternoon.
Come with me as we explore the Italic basics with the beautiful formal Italic written by Bernadino Cataneo in 1545. This beautiful little “cancellaresca corsiva” script is quite amazing with its multitude of different ampersands and can be adapted to suit your own style and become very contemporary. Italic is such a useful script that everyone needs to return to the basics every now and again.
