Do you want to spice up your Italic
and make it dance? Both subtle and demanding, the
skill of pressurizing can create forms that are
suffused with greater energy. That skill of pressure
and release (sound familiar to pointed pen people?)
Can transform a disciplined Italic into a more
dynamic set of letterforms with a fresh,
contemporary feel. We will “spring and release”
first through the lower case forms and then “swash
and flourish” our way through the caps. We will
explore all this with several different size nibs
and complete a variety of pieces.
This workshop is presented through
The Gentle Penman. All of the
information on the course as well as how to sign up
