Course Description: 

Exploring the historic Uncial hand with the broad-nib Pilot Parallel Pen, we appreciate the rich history of the scribes and place ourselves in their noble tradition, transcribing the ancient texts that otherwise would have been lost to the ages. In our Contemplative Calligraphy practice, the rhythmic movement of the pen on paper can become a moving meditation. Practical instruction on slant, spacing, and negative space – all aspects of depicting beautiful writing are introduced in this Beginning-level class.
