Calliarts - March - Nibs, Tools and Fun

 Dear Members and Followers,

How often do you look at a tool or a piece of equipment you own or see in store or online and

wonder, “How do I use that” or “What on earth is that for” then this afternoon is for you.

Bring along everything to you want to find out about, how to get the best results from or just

how to use. Think wide and far, from pen nibs to anything you can make a mark with (balsa

wood, coke pens, etc). The tutors this afternoon will be sharing their experience and answering

all your questions.

Materials List:

• Anything you do not know how to use
• A3 bleedproof pad
• Ink
• Gouache
• Graphite Pencil, ruler, eraser
• Scraps of paper

Then this workshop is for you.  We will look at some of the odd things I have and how to use them.....Chux tool, felt tools, writing with bleach, making a feather brush, Coke pens, etc. the list goes on.  Tools for writing and mark making are really only limited by your imagination.
