Contents:

  • Analysing/studying old master flourishes

This class is limited to 10 attendees. You'll get individual feedback/personalised help in each class.

No materials included. It's assumed you would have already have materials ready either from a previous class or you can buy additional material here. Guidelines and model sheets will be provided. 


To bring:
Ink friendly A4 notebook, oblique pen holder, nib (recommended Nikko/Zebra G nib), walnut or dye-based ink, pencil, eraser.

The venue is not accessible (has a flight of stairs and no lift). The script is not adapted for left handers, but left-handers who have some experience of copperplate are welcome to join. To get the most out of the class, there's optional homework if you'd like to bring in every week for me to correct. Please note these are in-person workshops, there are no catch up lessons if you miss a class, nor are refunds given. Cancellations are not accepted 72 hours before the first week of the course but can be transferred.
