Modern Calligraphy Workshop

Description

Come and explore the fas­ci­nat­ing world of point­ed pen Cal­lig­ra­phy with Sai, an expe­ri­enced Cal­lig­ra­ph­er and teach­ing artist, who will guide you through this workshop.

In this work­shop, you will learn the basics of Mod­ern Cal­lig­ra­phy using a tra­di­tion­al dip pen and ink. Mod­ern Cal­lig­ra­phy has a uni­ver­sal appeal, as it is a more flex­i­ble, acces­si­ble and play­ful ver­sion of tra­di­tion­al Cal­lig­ra­phy. We will cov­er the basics of Mod­ern cal­lig­ra­phy and focus on cre­at­ing beau­ti­ful thick and thin strokes using your dip pen and ink.

Once you become famil­iar with the pen strokes through prac­tice drills, you will learn how to cre­ate let­ter­forms (upper­case and low­er­case) step by step, fol­lowed by words and small phrases.
