February 5 from 7-9 pm on ZOOM
In this 2-hour workshop, we will learn to use a pointed fiber-tipped brush to create beautiful thick-and-thin italic letters. To build awareness for the pressure-release technique to create the letters, we will also learn “faux calligraphy” which can be adapted to larger poster work. Pointed brush lettering is fun and freeing, done with speed and spirit.
