Then sign up for Bill Kemp's Flourishing & Birds with Pointed Pen Calligraphy Workshop this September 13-14, 2012! Only 9 seats left!


Flourishing & Birds with Pointed Pen with Bill Kemp
• 2 Evening Sessions
• All Levels
• Price: $130 (includes book)
• Min. 8 / Max. 16
• Thurs. & Fri. Sept. 13 & 14, 6-10pm 


This two session evening workshop covers techniques for using the pointed pen to flourish. Learning basic compound curves and expanding on them to create beautiful flourishes. 


The flourishes are balanced shades of thick and thin lines, building on the contrast of the background and your pen strokes. There is no lettering taught in this class, but examples of combining the flourishes with letters will be demonstrated. A comprehensive workbook is part of the workshop for the students to continue to study this art form.


Please note that there are no refunds after the August 27th registration deadline.
