Over three creative weeks, you’ll letter your favourite titles, authors’ names, and meaningful quotes — transforming them into expressive artworks inspired by the stories you treasure.

Each session builds your skills while completing a finished design. You’ll explore expressive lettering, colour blending, illustrated details, and how to bring calligraphy and simple artwork together to create striking book-themed pieces and bookmarks.

Materials & Colour Palettes 

Bring your brush pens — in as many colours as you have — because we’ll be choosing a fresh palette for each project. If you’d like to purchase materials, we’ll be using:

• Koi Brush Pens for larger calligraphy

• Pentel Brush Pens for smaller lettering and details

• Our Dual-Tipped Black Brush Pen (recommended for all black lettering)

• A White Gel Pen for highlights and finishing touches

Worksheets All worksheets are included. Choose to receive them by email or have physical copies posted to you — just select the ticket option you prefer.

Across the three weeks, you’ll learn how to:

• Build confident, flowing brush pen letterforms

• Add shadows, highlights, and smooth colour blends

• Incorporate simple illustrations inspired by books

• Create balanced layouts mixing calligraphy with drawn elements

• Produce finished pieces such as book-title art, quotes, and illustrated bookmarks

Perfect for beginners and beyond-beginners, this course offers a chance to explore brush lettering while celebrating stories you love.

This 3-week course starts on Thursday 12th March and runs weekly on a Thursday until 26th March.
