Sponsored by 
Saturday and Sunday, August 23-24, 2025 9:30 PM-4:30 PM (PDT), plus a review session on Saturday, August 30, 9:30-12:30
Creative tiny foundational letterforms and Roman capitals using the versatile
pointed pen will be our focus for this workshop.
We will begin our study working with monoline forms, then use the
pointed pen. We will look at variations and how to achieve details while
reducing the x-height of our letters. The roman hand is a long time love of
mine. I have gravitated to the Roman hands minuscule as well as majiscule for
their versatility and elegance. As I often work with small letterforms, the
pointed pen is the tool that helps provide the refinement and elegance I am
looking for.
I’m excited share with you the delight in creating these delicate and charming
letterforms.
Workshop recommended for all levels. The recording will be available for 3 months.
