Introduction to Modern Calligraphy

About

Although it looks like letters are written in one fluid motion, in modern calligraphy they’re actually created by drawing a series of individual strokes. Learn these, and you’ll be well on your way to scripting beautiful words. Join Brittany DeSantis, the artist and author behind Peak Paper Co., for an introduction to modern calligraphy. It’s rooted in tradition but also personal and playful - perfect for beginners or those looking to elevate their handwriting. In this class, you’ll learn how to write all the basic strokes to create letters. In Parts 2 and 3, Brittany will lead a deeper dive into letter formations and how to write words for your own cards and compositions. This series is made for beginners with no prior experience or specific writing instruments required. Download and print your workbook before class to trace along.
