    About the Workshop:

    Have you ever daydreamed about an envelope that travels? Picture this: snowflakes gently landing on your envelope, or autumn leaves dancing across your post. Welcome to "The Echoes of Envelopes," where each stamp is a promise and every seal a secret - wondering what stories your envelope could tell.

    Seasonal Celebrations: From the quiet beauty of winter's frost to the cheeky rustle of autumn, explore how to splash the seasons across your envelopes. We're talking real chill vibes and playful breezes!

    Crafting Touches: Fancy making tiny paper poinsettias? They're so cute, you might just forget to send them off! Learn this and more delightful details that make each envelope a bundle of joy.

    Creative Freedom:

     We'll show you the ropes and then let you swing. It’s your style, your spin. Who knows what magic you'll whisk up?

    The workshop will be recorded and available for three months.


    Who Should Attend:

    Do handwritten notes make your heart sing? Do you wish to add a sprinkle of your soul to each letter? If you're nodding (we see you!), then grab your quill (or pen!) and join us. Whether you're a seasoned scribbler or a curious newbie, we promise there are smiles and splatters of ink waiting for you!

    About Shreya:

    Introducing Shreya, your go-to envelope whisperer and nature’s best friend. She translates the quiet whispers of the wild into vivid watercolor stories. Not just an artist, Shreya’s also a loves letter-writing—she believes every envelope deserves a good chat before meeting the mailbox. With a paintbrush in one hand and a pen in the other, she champions the art of slowing down. Her personal motto? "Take your time; even snails reach their destinations!" Besides painting, Shreya adores journaling and the art of calligraphy, turning every page and letter into a dance of ink and emotions. Let’s not rush; let’s make art that feels like a good, long, friendly letter.

    ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP: Built-up capitals are infinitely variable and provide the maximum control over the letter forms. They also provide a deeper understanding of the shapes and spaces that make up our alphabet. The opportunity for variations is practically unlimited, from Trajan-like elegance to casual flair to playful silliness. And these variations can work together seamlessly.

       In this workshop, we will begin with pencilled monoline capitals and then begin building on those monoline capitals to built-up capitals, first with pencils and then with broad-edge pens.

       Then the fun will continue with variations in letters, layout, and rhythm. We'll explore how and why these elements are so dramatically different in capitals than in minuscules.

       Suitable for beginners and experienced letterers alike. Workshop will be recorded and available for three months after the final session. 

    ABOUT BETH: Beth Lee is a lettering and book artist living in Bozeman, Montana. She holds a fine arts degree in graphic design, and has worked as a freelance calligrapher and graphic designer since 1982. Beth has also taught calligraphy and book arts for 40 years, both locally and around the United States. Current work includes lettering on bespoke fly fishing rods and writing out historical documents for publishing projects. She is the calligraphy correspondent for the national Guild of BookWorkers Newsletter. Her work may be found in university and private collections around the United States.

    ABOUT  THE WORKSHOP: Good design, says artist Irene Au, is like a refrigerator—when it works no one notices, but when it doesn’t, it stinks. This workshop is designed to help artists of all skill levels who use letters and letterforms better understand composition and the elements and principles of design. You will come away with a better understanding of design essentials and some layout tips of special interest to lettering artists. The workshop will include many handouts, demos, and exercises to build your design skills. The three-session course will also include a review of work a couple weeks following the instruction to give you time to complete work. Details to Follow

    ABOUT MIKE: Mike Gold worked as a commercial lettering designer for over 35 years, mostly in the social expressions business. But his real passion is exploring the corridors of calligraphy that have been less traveled, the path where words and letters are design elements with which to play with line, shape and form, where creating a visual statement is more important than writing a readable text. In both his professional and personal art, Mike breaks traditional rules to create contemporary, non-traditional work.

    Mike has an M.A. in Visual Communications and has studied with many outstanding lettering and design masters over the years. Mike has taught around the country and at several international calligraphy conferences. His personal work has been featured in Letter Arts Review many times over the past 25-plus years. He has been a juror for the Letter Arts Review annual and his work is in many private collections, including the Berlin Calligraphy Archive. He is the author of Lines to Live By (available through John Neal, Bookseller), which is Mike's take on being a non-traditional calligrapher in the 21st century.

    No charge for these Study Group Sessions. They are led by members, sharing what they have learned. They do not claim to be masters. Members and guests may register for any individual session--there is no requirement to attend prior sessions. The aim is to share knowledge with newbies and to provide a refresher for those with more experience.  Each individual session requires separate registration.

    The session will be led by Kristi Darwick. We plan to record this session. Kristi asks that you remind her!

    Agenda: 

    We'll embark on a long-term study of Sue Hufton's book, Step-by-Step Calligraphy. A member brought this book to Kristi's attention. Kristi had it on her shelf, having previously referenced it for italic. It has a great section on Romans and contains information we haven't seen in the past. For the coming year, we'll sprinkle in some David Jones forms, which have had a significant impact on the Bruges calligraphers. David Jones was inspired by the Roman lettering at the coliseum, so Kristi will search her photo albums for pictures from there. And, we'll pay attention to what Jurgen Vercaemst has done with Romans. AND we'll study another of Thomas Ingmire's pieces. These references could keep us busy for a very long time!

    Since Kristi is away on our usual October date and the month is filled with Beth Lee's class on Built-up Romans, we'll next meet in November.  

    Flexible Schedule for the evening:

    6:30 - 6:45 Announcements

    6:45 - 7:45 Review the structure of skeleton Roman Letters, with tips from Sue. We will build on what we did last session. (Sue has some great tips for spacing, as well--we'll save those for our December session.) We'll play with a few interesting letters and ligatures from Bruges calligraphers and talk about an optional project to put these to use.

    7:45 - 8:00 Opportunity for those who wish to share what they've completed during the session (and since our last session) and time for questions.

    SUPPLY LIST:

    graph paper or plain paper 

    Pencil/eraser

    Ruler

    Colored pencils (or markers)

    Optional: Step-by-Step Calligraphy, Susan Hufton   (A valuable reference for your personal library--Alibris and other sites have some great deals.)


    Membership not required

    Zoom invitation and handouts are sent a couple days in advance. 

     It's not guaranteed that you'll receive them beforehand, if you sign up the day of . . .

      ABOUT THE WORKSHOP: Join us for a journey into creativity, introspection, hand lettering and play.  We will start with two full sheets of Arches Text Wove and will create spaces and areas to design our own unique art.

      To begin, we will review and warm up with Casual Romans and variations. Playing with variations of our own handwriting and favorite calligraphic hands will be explored.

      Prompts will be offered to provide some introspection and contemplation. We will also use poetry, quotes and your own personal journaling. We will continue with a variety of art techniques, color play, and design. Collage, mask making, rubber stamps, small gel plate, watercolors, stencils, washi tape, masking and more will be techniques for our class.

      The final step on this journey will be bookbinding. We will tear down our colorful sheets and sew the books with  a unique binding technique.

      This is a fast paced, fun and playful class. It will be a doorway for you to continue in your book at anytime in your art practice.  Beginners and experts alike are welcome. 

      The supply list will be sent immediately upon registration. Directions and other logistical information will be also be sent about four weeks in advance. Handouts will be provided at the workshop. 

      ABOUT VERONICA: I began my Calligraphy journey in the late 80's.  I was fortunate to study with Reggie Ezell year long class program and then three semesters with Tim Botts.  My true love has always been Roman Letters.  Studying with Peter Thornton has given me the discipline and creative permission to explore this art form for many years.
           
      In addition to Calligraphy, I do enjoy bookbinding and all sorts of mixed media play.  I am now retired and able to enjoy the time and freedom it offers. I live in the Arizona desert and am a member of The Calligraphic Society of Arizona.

      Going Around in Circles -Introduction to Celtic Knotwork in the Round


      Instructor: Nancy Hays Hills

      This workshop is sponsored by the San Fernando Valley Regional

      Many of us have spent happy hours doodling Celtic knots in the margins of notebooks, filling squares and rectangles with knot patterns, and perhaps even have gone on to incorporate these designs into pieces of art. For those of you with some experience in drawing knots and who have an itch to take things a little further, this class will show how to begin to place knotwork in a circle. In this three and a half hour class we will learn the basics: how to draw concentric circles and divide them into sections to create the knot work dot grid, how to weave a basic knot, and how to vary the pattern for more interesting designs. There will be handouts to get you started, but we’ll be making our own circles from scratch. We’ll be working mostly in pencil – and we’ll be doing a lot of erasing as we go!

      Workshop Fee: $30.00

      This workshop is open to all SfC members. If you are not a member and wish to take this workshop please follow the directions on the home page to become a member and then you can register for the workshop.

      This workshop will be recorded and the recording will be available for viewing until 31 December, 2024.

      Materials list:

      A few sheets of letter-size graph paper – any grid size will do.

      A compass fitted with a pencil lead

      Protractor

      Ruler

      Pencil and sharpener, or mechanical pencil

      Eraser

      Pen or thin marker for inking in lines

      The workshop via Zoom is for a total of four hours;   3.5 hours of instructional content and a 30 minute break.

      The zoom link and handouts will be sent out a few days before the workshop.

      Any questions about this workshop, please email Carrie Imai carrie@carriedesigns.com


      Nancy Hays Hills is an artist and Episcopal deacon living in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She began drawing as soon as she could hold a crayon, and was lucky enough to parents who encouraged their shy child to express herself on paper – especially her father, who would amuse her by drawing cartoons, sometimes in ballpoint pen on the bottoms of her feet! She took her first calligraphy course at age 17, and has incorporated lettering in her art ever since. She combines art and ministry by sending one-of-a-kind cards and envelopes to people in her parish, and leading mini creative classes over Zoom. Her artwork has been featured in Bound & Lettered, Alphabet, and the latest Speedball Textbook.

        Presenter: Cindy Jones Lantier


        Program sponsored by Inland Empire Society for Calligraphy

        No charge for this hybrid ( In-person and On-line)  Outreach program.

        SATURDAY,  NOVEMBER 23, 10:30am - 1:30pm (PST)

        We're aiming to have more of an in-person presence, in addition to maintaining our robust online schedule. Locals are welcome to join us at the San Dimas Library to spread out with our project and enjoy each other's company as Cindy demonstrates. We'll have a sewing machine and some spare paints to share.  

        San Dimas Library, 145 N Walnut Ave San Dimas, CA 91773

        ABOUT THIS PROGRAM: Receiving personal mail is such a treat in these days of email and text messages. We will make several postcards from a variety of mixed-media supplies in a veryfreeform style. You absolutely do not need to have mixed-media experience to create a variety of striking postcards; Cindy will take us through the process every step of the way. You will learn a set of techniques that you can use over and over, while creating sets of postcards that each look different. Sending original artwork as a postcard is such a surprise for the recipient. I know they’ll love them!

        These postcards will meet the US Postal Services regulations for postcards that can be sent without envelopes. Like commercial postcards, there’s space on the back for a short message,as well as an address. These postcards have successfully made their way to Canada, too.

        Note from Kristi: although the sample cards don't show calligraphy being incorporated, I challenge participants to do that, once Cindy demonstrates the process. Members will be invited to participate in a mail exchange.

        Supply list: 20241123_Supply List for Postcards Class.pdf

        Skills required: all levels.

        Recording will be available for two months after the program.

        8 weeknight sessions with Barbara Close

        $85 - this discounted rate is a gift to our members. No refunds.

        Wednesdays, January 8, 15, 22, 29 and February 5, 12, 19, 26, 2025, from 6:30 to 8:30 PM (PST).

        WORKSHOP IS FULL. WAITLIST IS OPEN

        ABOUT THE SERIES:  We will be starting our workshop on Roman Studies with a serious look at the proportions of these beautiful majuscules. These letters have been immortalized by many throughout the ages and are considered one of the most important styles to master.

        Once this is understood, then we can start to “break some rules” and use them as our building blocks to develop further patterns such as squaring off Monoline tips and trying pointed pen nibs for great textures. We’ll have several exercises to explore for some exciting page designs.

        Level: Beginner/Intermediate

        We will make Padlet available for sharing work for critique, as well as with fellow students.  Recordings will be available for two months after the close of the series.

        Copperplate - A Systematic Approach with Jodi Denning




        Sponsored by San Diego SfC  

        Saturdays: January 11 & February 22,2025 at 9:00 AM to 2:10 PM (Pacific Time)

        Review on March 8, 2025 at 9:00 AM to 10.30AM (Pacific Time)

        $25     MEMBERS ONLY

        Due to the way our computer system works, registrations not immediately followed with payment will be cancelled. Also we cannot accept registrations after noon on Thursday, January 9, 2025.


        About the Workshop:

        Copperplate Minuscules – A Systematic Approach

        This class will help students develop a foundation in the fundamentals of the Copperplate style of pointed pen script. The class will begin with a brief introduction to using a pointed pen, and a time for questions for students unfamiliar with the pointed pen. Participants will learn the structure of the basic strokes for the minuscules of this beautiful script, and then use those basic strokes to form the various related groups of minuscule letters. Detailed practice worksheets will be provided in PDF format.

        Copperplate Majuscules – A Systematic Approach

        This class is a continuation of the Copperplate Minuscules class, exploring the basic strokes and structure of the majuscules of the script. Basic familiarity with pointed pen and with the Copperplate minuscule alphabet is required before taking this class. Detailed practice worksheets will be provided in PDF format.

        The workshop will be recorded and available for two months.


        Recommended Experience: Beginners to advanced

        About Jodi:

        With no artistic background, Jodi jumped into calligraphy in late 2016 with a serious desire to learn pointed pen calligraphy, and no clue as to how to get started. After unsuccessfully trying to find local classes or resources, she began navigating the many challenges of learning calligraphy on her own. A couple years later she pursued “correspondence course” instruction from calligrapher Bill Kemp. As online courses began to be available, she continued to study, learn, and develop her traditional Copperplate/Engrosser’s Script style calligraphy.

        Jodi’s professional career in software engineering gave her a natural orientation toward detail. Her lifelong passion for training horses and teaching riding skills gave her an understanding of how to break complex skills down into “bite-sized” pieces for a less intimidating learning experience, as well as a focus on self-assessment as a tool to develop increased skill refinement which she now brings to her calligraphy instruction.
