Modern Calligraphy The Next Steps - Online Tuition With Me
Modern Calligraphy The Next Steps - Online Tuition With Me
This is the perfect 2 hour workshop for those who have attended a previous beginners modern calligraphy workshop either with myself or another tutor.
During this improvers workshop you will learn the benefits and importance of a good basic drills warm up. Under my guidance you will discover how to connect your lettering together, use entrance and exit strokes. We will then all work together on either creating an A5 sized verse of poetry or I will tailor the session to your own calligraphy needs or projects.
NB. Unless stated above, there will be no equipment supplied for this workshop, please use your own supplies, if you would like me to provide anything you can purchase from my store www.wildseacalligraphy.com/supply-shop?category=Calligraphy+Supplies
See below for further information regarding the workshop…
How does it work?
Once booked please email me with your required date and time to schedule in your video tuition.
We will be using Zoom for our workshop, this enables you to view my lettering examples, speak to me and for me to give you feedback on your work in realtime. You will require you to have a Zoom account which is very easy to download and set up.
Location: The comfort of your own home (bring tea and cake!)

Helpful Technical Information
I use Zoom for all of my online workshops, you can download this onto your computer, laptop, iPad or iPhone.
A laptop is a great choice as you can move the screen up and down so I can see your work easily.
Ideally have two devices, one where you can watch me and one such as an iPhone pointed at your work so I can see your progress.
Mic and video settings. Make sure you have allowed “access for all” on your settings so that there are no technical issues at the start of our session.
