The Joy of Calligraphy
We're delighted to be hosting our Beginners Modern Calligraphy workshop with our friends at Lytham Hall in Lytham St Annes, Lancashire on Wednesday May 15th from 11am – 1:30pm! £69 (same price as 2023)
All our Workshops are suitable for Complete Beginners and Intermediates (if you've picked up a dip pen before) as we work through the core fundamentals of Modern Calligraphy. Guided by expert tutors; Beverley Mellor and Lucy Mellor, we'll begin by learning the core fundamentals of Modern Calligraphy; how to hold the dip pen, pressure strokes and rhythms that give calligraphy its characteristic contrasting strokes before moving onto learning the upper and lower case alphabet, how to link letters, first words and phrases. We'll also learn how to draw decorative illustrations and flourishes to complement our Calligraphy and Handlettering on luxe card stock and stationery pieces. The second half of the workshop covers how to layout our Stationery such as greeting cards and gift tags whilst learning to letter up and design a piece of wall art – exciting!
WHAT'S INCLUDED?
Individual Calligraphy Box with Fully comprehensive Starter Kit with Dip pen, Nib, Mellor & Rose Calligraphy Workbook and take home templates, wall art and Luxe Stationery Items for your Calligraphy.
• Calligraphy Box is yours to use in the Workshop and take home to keep forever (and ever!)
