Six-week class beginning September 13, 2025
Course Description:
While learning to create beautiful writing with the broad-nib Pilot Parallel Pen, we will also be cultivating a peaceful practice that has brought equanimity and calm to calligraphers throughout the ages. The rhythmic movement of the pen on paper can become a moving meditation. Starting with the Foundational hand and progressing to Italic, practical aspects such as instruction on slant, spacing, and the importance of negative space, plus an overview of the historical context of hand lettering will be presented.
