What you'll do
We're thrilled to introduce a modern twist on traditional calligraphy and can't wait to welcome you aboard. With brand-new course materials crafted just for you, get ready to expand your lettering skills and elevate your joy in calligraphy like never before.
Discover the fundamentals of Italic script, distinguished by its use of a broad edge nib rather than a pointed one. The variation in thick and thin strokes is achieved through pen angle, not pressure. Throughout the course, you'll experiment with various nib sizes to create calligraphy at different scales.
While mastering the rules of this formal style, you'll enhance your pen control, a valuable skill even if you're drawn to modern styles. With its rhythmic flow, italic calligraphy embodies the graceful dance of the pen, cultivating fluency in all your lettering projects.
No prior experience or special artistic talent is needed for this virtual course—just a passion for learning and practicing.
Course structure
- Week 1 Preparing your assembling the pen, guidelines and paper position. Skeleton Italics and letter formation groups.
- Week 2 Weighted italics in pencil, serifs and spacing.
- Week 3 Words, inks and scaling down with nibs. Consistency and rhythm.
- Week 4 Italic capitals and lettering groups. Using gouache.
- Week 5 Adding a flourish and simple composition.
