Tutor - Vivien Lunniss
Uncials
Unleashed
Description
Using an 8th century Uncial as a basis, we will explore
processes to modify and adapt the letterforms to create
a more personalised style of writing for contemporary
use, yet still retain the essential character and charm
of the original script.
Materials/equipment needed
Layout paper
Cartridge paper or HP watercolour paper
Nibs: Mitchell 1, 2, 2 ½, 4 and 5 or 6 (or equivalent
sizes in your preferred brand)
Automatic pen no.5 OR Pilot Parallel pen 6mm (The Pilot,
though expensive, is really better than the Automatic
pen for what we will be doing).
Ruler, pencil, eraser, ink + all the usual kit
