If you've ever wanted to learn a form of classical calligraphy but didn't know where to begin, this two-day online calligraphy course on English Vernacular Script is a brilliant starting point. Whether you're a novice or experienced practitioner, this engaging and informative live-streaming workshop from master scribe Paul Antonio will give you more insight into the family of copperplate scripts, and how you can incorporate their variety of letterforms into your own projects.
Under Paul's expert tutelage, you'll learn the techniques of this lesser-known script, alongside its fascinating history and broader cultural context. Beginning with soft pencils, you'll practise a host of hand-scribing techniques for the letterforms and punctuation. Once you've built up your confidence with the pencil work you will swiftly settle into the pointed flexible metal nib for more accurate letters.
Don't worry if you've never picked up a nib before, as Paul will share the benefits of his decades of experience and research to help you build your skills in this beautiful, relaxing art form. There'll also be an optional Q&A session after each class for any burning questions or queries you might have for a master scribe.
Whether you're a complete beginner keen to start your journey or looking for the ideal gift for the calligrapher in your life, this course is a brilliant opportunity to learn from one of the best in the business.
