Please note: separate registration is needed for each study group session.
We want to encourage and motivate our members to create finished pieces. We'll learn about design principles and how we might apply them.
And, watch for workshops/classes that can supplement what we learn in these sessions! Your input is welcome, regarding design topics you'd like to study.
Study Group sessions are usually led by members, sharing what they have learned--we're all learning together! From time-to-time, we will have guest presenters.
We plan to record this session. Kristi asks that you remind her!
General Agenda
1. Share our work.
3. Review the day's topic: Focus on specific principles/elements of design. For this session, we'll cover Emphasis and Focal Point, both as it applies to art in general, and to our calligraphy pieces.
4. Another chance to share and invite critique (always optional).
We strongly encourage participants to join our private Facebook group, Let's Make Finished Pieces!, so that you can interact with other Study Group participants and you may request critiques from other members. If you need help with joining, please contact Kristi at sdworkshops@societyforcalligraphy.org
Month's Project: We'll continue with our projects, and start new ones, at our own pace.
SUPPLY LIST: We'll be sketching thumbnails
- Paper for sketching--printer, layout, a sketchbook, etc.
- Pencil, eraser, ruler

- You may want to have one of your own calligraphy pieces or sketches close at hand, to study as to how this topic applies to that.
