Join Helen Hayman for this 5 hour workshop of calligraphy!

AN INTRODUCTION TO THE CALLIGRAPHY WORKSHOP

We start with an introduction to calligraphy and the square edged nib pen. You will then learn a modern calligraphic hand derived from historical scripts   All tools, materials and handouts will be provided.  All you need to bring is a sense of adventure and a willingness to learn.

ABOUT THE TUTOR

“I have always loved words and books. One day joined a calligraphy class and discovered the magical power and possibilities to be found in letters.  I have been a passionate calligrapher ever since that day in 1985.

I have been a tutor since the early 1990’s, taught all over the country, run innumerable workshops, been an artist- in-residence twice, had my exhibited work all over the country, developed my skills by attending a huge number of calligraphy courses and workshops both here and abroad. My work is held in both public and private collections. 

I have been a member of Calderdale Calligraphers since it started in 1988 and am active member of both the Society of Scribes and Illuminators and the Calligraphy and Lettering Society.”
