If you have been considering starting up modern calligraphy as a new hobby but unsure of where to begin, then this workshop is for you. Aimed at complete beginners, this workshop gives you the opportunity to explore the pointed nib and develop your own style amongst other aspiring Calligraphers.
(Read below for more information)
I will be hosting a Beginner’s Calligraphy workshop at Mitton Hall in Whalley. Mitton Hall is a beautiful wedding venue situated on the outskirts of Whalley. It is the most beautiful and historic building.
If you haven't checked it out already, I would highly recommend it. I couldn't resist it's decor and knew it was the PERFECT location for one of my calligraphy workshops.
What to expect in a workshop?
The workshop will begin with a thorough introduction of what supplies you will be using (and taking home) followed by some exercises to help you understand how to develop certain movements and shapes. You will then move onto creating letterforms. At this point, you will feel confident enough to create a style of your own.
I offer a limited amount of tickets for my Calligraphy workshops. This is to ensure that each ticket holder has some one-to-one guidance with me to help them confidently get stuck into the Art of Modern Calligraphy.
- Introduction to Modern Calligraphy and the basics of hand lettering.
- A Modern Calligraphy Kit for you to take home, including:
Nikko G Nib
Kate Illustrate Black Ink
Universal Straight Penholder
- A Kate Illustrate Modern Calligraphy Handbook
(Carefully developed by me to give you the best guidance, illustrated examples and tips to help you progress)
- 1 on 1 guidance from Kate
- A complimentary drink
- A sweet treat
- Beautiful handwritten and illustrated FINAL PIECE
PS. The ink we will be using is permanent; sleeves and wrists in particular can be at risk of getting ink on them.
