Give Cursive a Chance
New! 3 half-day workshops Edna Kunkel
Calligraphy, literally meaning "beautiful writing", quickly is
becoming a lost art and means for relaxation. You will have a chance to test broad pens in the form of markers, cartridge-type
fountain pens, and nibbed pens, and have a chance to work in the richest black ink and embellish it with brilliant colors.
Here, you will see the simple slanted Cursive hand, learn when to push and pull, create thick and thin strokes that live inside
the writing tool, and learn to use templates to transform your everyday writing tasks from a chore to a joy. Instructor will
provide calligraphy markers, cartridge pens, and nibbed pens to test for both right- and left-handed writers, as well as papers,
inks, and sundry supplies for first class. Supply list to be provided. Friday
May 3, 10, 17 1-4 $95/ $5 materials
