Zoom Workshop: Draw Your Words Mother's Day Edition
* Please read all the way through, including Policies & Procedures, before purchasing *
Date & Time: April 28, Wednesday, 7-9pm PST
In this workshop students will learn how to enhance their own handwriting to create unique hand-lettered designs. For this Special Mother's Day themed workshop we will be drawing lovely greetings for Mom. We will base the lettering on own own handwriting but we will also focus on creating lettering styles that allow for floral designs and patterns.
Express yourself with your own unique lettering using easily accessible materials that you may already have at home. The simple exercises and tools provided make the class an environment where students can explore and have fun! This is a beginners workshop where the emphasis will be on loosening up and unleashing creativity rather than focusing on the technical aspects of hand lettering. 1.5-2 hours, max. 8 students (aged 16+). $25CAD
IN THIS CLASS YOU WILL:
• Gain an understanding on what hand lettering is (and what it is not)
• Focus on creatively enhancing and embellishing how you naturally write letters to create your own letter form designs
