Basics of Western Calligraphy with the Broad-Edge Pen with Martha Ericson
When: Dec. 5-6, 10 a.m.-4 p.m. 2015
Using the graceful, italic forms of the European Renaissance as a model, students will explore how the broad-edge pen created the building blocks of Western type and cursive writing traditions. Those who have already worked with calligraphic tools can use this workshop as a brush up and diagnostic clinic and beginners will be given the skills to begin practicing the craft.
