About the workshop: We calligraphers love medieval illumination. Glorious times, when beautiful manuscripts have been created with lines & pages of highly decorated letters and words. They remain to be inspirational for us as they have been through the decades for many artists & designers. Brilliant work has been created by graphic designers in the 1920s. let this be inspiration for your new style of Modern Illumination! The workshop will be recorded.
Experience Level: Beginners through advanced - you don´t have to be a super-experienced calligrapher. We´ll be drawing letters, painting & decorating.
