Italic Calligraphy for Beginners – Class 1 

with Patti Paulus, Calligrapher 

Patti has been a calligrapher for almost 40 years and is passionate about sharing her love for beautiful letters! In this class you will learn the foundation of creating lowercase calligraphic italic letters with a broad edged tool. And you don’t even have to have good handwriting to learn calligraphy! Each student can expect to receive several exemplars (templates), grid paper to practice on, and the opportunity to communicate with Patti after the class for additional help and/or critique of your practice work. Calligraphic writing tools and supplies will be available for your use with an option to purchase at the end of the workshop. If you’ve taken a class with Patti please bring all your tools, exemplars and practice sheets. Plan to slow down and meditatively practice the flow of black ink on paper to create beautiful letters. 

Actively working as a lettering artist since 1982, Patti practices calligraphy as an art-form and uses hand-rendered letterforms in her graphic design work.  She also paints, draws, is a bookmaker, and her love of charcoal opens up fresh avenues of expression for her.
