This month yours truly is swapping her blogging and president's hats to tutor Neuland.
The Neuland script is a chunky typeface designed by Rudolph Koch in the 1920’s and calligraphers and lettering artists still use it in a variety of ways today.
Neuland letters are excellent to draw, cut, layer and outline, with this in mind, the first half of the Calliart will be dedicated to learning the script while the second half will be spent exploring ways you can use it.
Materials List:
· Chisel edge nibs – a variety of sizes
· Usual Calligraphy Gear (Ink and/or gouache, Layout pad, Ruler, Graphite pencil and eraser, etc.)
· Tracing paper
· Carpenter’s pencil (or similar broad edge pencil)
· Watercolour pencils (12 pack)

· Fine-line waterproof black marker *
