Through hands-on practice, historical context, and live demonstrations, you’ll learn how structure, spacing, and contrast bring this script to life—and how understanding these principles can open the door to personal expression.This session is ideal for beginners or those looking to reconnect with traditional tools like the dip pen and ink. You’ll leave with a solid foundation, greater confidence in your strokes, and a deeper appreciation of how classical forms can evolve into your own expressive lettering voice.
