Copperplate Calligraphy
September 15, 2021 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm
£55Copperplate is a traditional calligraphy script written with a pointed nib and a sound basis for more modern and expressive styles. In this friendly and informal workshop, calligrapher Angela Reed will help you get to grips with using a dip pen and ink, before guiding you through the basic strokes required to form lower case and upper case letters and join them together to create beautifully handwritten words. All abilities are welcome and materials will be provided.
