Begin with the brush stroke basics in this one night class!  Lettering with brush pens is a fun way to flex your calligraphy muscles without having to reach for messy dip pen nibs and inks. Although more casual than most forms of calligraphy, it does take some patience and practice to learn how to use a brush pen. In this beginner workshop, we’ll be teaching you how to create beautiful script using brush pens and throwing in some tips and tricks along the way. Continued practice at home is recommended to build your muscle memory. 

Faux calligraphy is a beautiful lettering style. You’ll learn how to create this fun, accessible form of calligraphy in this intro class.
