This workshop is suitable for anyone that has attended a beginners pointed nib workshop, or those with a basic understanding of modern calligraphy.

You will learn how to develop your own unique modern calligraphy style and improve your overall technique. Working from these foundations we will focus on improving your calligraphy by exploring spacing, connections and proportions.

You can then bring your own design to a favourite quotation.

A full kit is provided for you to take home.
