June 12 & 13 (Friday 6-9 & Saturday 9-4)
Elegant Copperplate Script Workshop
with Red Deer calligrapher, Roxanne Fairbrother
at High River United Church
Copperplate is a style of writing that is done using a sharp pointed flexible nib instead of the flat nib used in most calligraphic styles. By applying pressure on the nib you can get thick strokes and when releasing pressure you get graceful think upstrokes. This script dates back as early as the 16th century. It is easy to learn and because you will be using a pointed nib, absolutely no calligraphy experience is needed. Cost of workshop is $75.
