Tonight's calligraphy class experimented with text layout for the broadsheets that the students are creating. It's helpful to create paste ups to visualise how one might charge the weight, size or style of text and if something decorative should be added to get rid of negative space. * * * #citylit #calligraphy #dippen #brushmarker #copperplate #italic #handwriting #handlettered #handwritten #learncalligraphy #writecalligraphy #calligraphyworkshop #londoncalligraphy #londoncalligraphyworkshop #inkandnib #penmanship #latergram

Last night's calligraphy class had the privilege of viewing the instructor's peer's practise book from a few years ago. They aren't perfect, but very inspiring. Students will create their own books during the course. * * * #calligraphyworkshop #calligraphy #writecalligraphy #calligrafriends #latergram #nofilter #penmanship #dippen #pencil #inkandnib #londonworkshop #londoncalligraphyworkshop #citylitac

Last night's calligraphy class involved practicing working with dip pen. Previously, students analysed hope they thought the script was written and applied this to their calligraphy practise. There are also some books to peruse to study techniques for copperplate (pictured), italic (not pictured) and uncial (not pictured). * * * #calligraphy #learncalligraphy #writecalligraphy #theartofwriting #theartofcalligraphy #historicalscript #historicalcalligraphy #londoncalligraphy #calligraphyworkshop #citylit #citylitac #latergram #londoncalligraphyworkshop #eatsleepbreathecalligraphy #copperplate #italics #uncial #dippen #sumiink

Tonight's calligraphy class involved working with dip pen and writing Roman Capitals. Students learned how weight, size, colour and layout of the text affect an observer's perception of a calligraphic piece. Do you use these factors when creating a calligraphic piece? * * * #calligraphy #handwritten #handlettered #penmanship #romancapitals #writecalligraohy #calligrafriends #latergram #calligraphyworkshop #learncalligraphy #theartofwriting #theartoflettering #inkandnib #dippen #londoncalligraphy

Tonight's class learned how old scripts were written. Colours depict where pens have been picked up to write particular letters. Students were also shown a book to inspire ideas as well as a practise book of calligraphy (where one can see progresses being made). Have you ever used these techniques? Do you have a calligraphy practice book? * * * #calligraphy #learncalligraphy #calligraphie #londoncalligraphy #handwritten #colours #colors #script #copperplate #italic #calligraphyworkshop #citylitac #writecalligraphy #penmanship #londonworkshop #techniques #learningtools #inkandnib #studycalligraphy #latergram
