Saturday
11th and Sunday 12th September 2010
Tutor - Nancy Ouchida-Howells
From
Flourishes to Cadels
The workshop will begin with simple pen strokes, develop
pen rhythms, help visualise the balance between freedom
and control to write flourishes to enhance our calligraphy.
The flourishes will be developed to make simple cadels
and be added to letters.
Beginners and improvers, right or left-handers are
welcome in this friendly workshop.
Those with more experience may choose from a variety
of examples/projects to practice their cadels.
Materials:
Please bring your regular calligraphy kit: A favourite
pen nib - a pen or pens that write smoothly - Wm. Mitchell
size 3 or equivalent: Brause 1 1/2 mm or so. Or quill
or felt-tip marker or fountain pen. Coloured Ink or
paints. Plenty of practice paper. Please bring any examples
of flourishes or cadels for the display board.
If you would like Nancy to bring any nibs, paints,
gilding materials to the workshop, please let her know
