Modern Copperplate Calligraphy Live Online

Calligraphy isn’t a lost art, it’s just an art that you haven’t learned yet!

So, you've taken the Modern Calligraphy Brush Lettering class, but now you want more! This is the class to add to your toolbox. You will learn the techniques you need to create the thick and thin lines of modern calligraphy but this time using a flexible steel nib and ink to create a beautiful Copperplate alphabet. We'll go over the basic skills for modern calligraphy, such as proper pen handling, how to prepare the nib for the first time use, best inks and papers for pointed pen calligraphy, and other materials.

Even though this class is a continuation of the brush lettering class, it is still beginner friendly so you're welcome to attend even if you have no prior experience. You only learn a few supplies to learn Copperplate calligraphy and a link to the kit on Amazon will be provided upon registration.

You will leave with a full script alphabet in upper and lower cases worksheets and practice your new skills that can be applied to cards, invitations, signs, or just to give your penmanship a little pizzazz. You’ll even leave with your own hand-drawn greeting card.

The workshop will be conducted over Zoom and you will need a webcam and microphone to participate. 

Detailed instructions on how to join the session will be emailed with the workbook once you have registered. And after the class is over, I will share the recording so you can replay over and over. You’ll also have the option to join a private Facebook group where we can go over any additional questions and get personalized help on your future projects.
