Beginners Pointed Nib Workshop

Saturday 25th March 10am - 12.30pm

Forty Hall, Forty Hill, EN2 9HA

Carefully structured, our lesson plan takes you through guided exercises, creating the letters of the alphabet and turning them into elegant words. Finally, you’ll work onto our lovely card templates, designed by Kirsten Burke, the UK’s leading calligrapher.

We’ll build your confidence by gradually adding to your understanding of the techniques which make modern calligraphy so beautiful. By the end of the session, you’ll have progressed from making basic strokes to being able to connect letter forms and create your own calligraphic words and phrases.

As well as guiding the whole group with demonstrations and instructions, your tutor will be there to provide you with one-on-one tuition and troubleshoot any issues you may come across.

Throughout the workshop you’ll learn about letterforms, use metallics, and try some colour blending. With these techniques in your repertoire, you'll soon be creating greeting cards, party invitations and artworks for your home and loved ones!
