Overview

Our 2-week Introduction to Pointed Pen Calligraphy online course includes 5 hours of class time with us over Google Meet.

In this course, we will introduce the foundations that you will require to get yourself started with pointed pen calligraphy. This includes an introduction to a selected range of pointed pen calligraphy styles that we can create with a pointed pen tool, live demonstration of its application in modern-day usage and actual practice of the suggested pointed pen styles. Throughout the class, will primarily focus on practicing 1 calligraphy style -  a neat version (Copperplate Calligraphy) and we will also introduce our contemporary calligraphy style and how we create our contemporary style from the neat calligraphy version. (Our signature modern calligraphy script).

In week 1, we will focus primarily on the foundations of the lowercase Copperplate Calligraphy script which involves the basic strokes and general letter form study for letters a to z. In week 2, we will learn how we transform everything learnt in Week 1 and create our own modern-calligraphy style.

We will wrap up the class by attempting to write on the mini acrylic painted cards that are sent to you. You will be able to gift these cards to your close ones with your new skill! :)
