Livestreamed Nib Workshop

About the Event

Tutor: Maisie Minett

Learn calligraphy from the comfort of your own home! This workshop is the perfect introduction to modern calligraphy and will take you through the basics of using a pointed nib and ink. We will start with a demo to show you how to use your pointed nib, then we will work through warm-up exercises to teach you the basics, practising letterforms and joining up letters.

We will talk about how to create your own modern calligraphy style and you'll finish off the workshop by making your own calligraphy piece with the help of our unique templates. Friendly and informative, you will be guided step by step, so that you are able to build up your skills quickly and easily.

This workshop is a live stream via Zoom, which means that you can ask questions and receive direct help with your work from our experienced tutor. This workshop is NOT a pre-recorded video and is suitable for complete beginners.

An online workshop is a wonderful way to learn calligraphy, as you are able to watch your tutor demonstrate up close on your screen so that every letter stroke and movement of the pen and hand is magnified and easy to follow. This workshop is suitable for complete beginners — no experience is necessary. Your Zoom invite will come with your booking email confirmation, and we'll send it to you again 3 days before your workshop in your reminder email. After you've booked please check your Spam folder in case the email ends up in there!

Complete Kit Option

Select the kit ticket to receive ink, a wooden penholder, a Leonardt 30 nib, plus gorgeous metallic paint, a paintbrush for mixing, and original worksheets & templates designed by our Master calligrapher Kirsten Burke.

Your kit will be posted to you the week prior to your workshop. You only need to provide a jar of water, and please protect the surface that you work on in case of ink spills.

Worksheets Only

You can book this workshop without the calligraphy kit if you already have your calligraphy supplies, but would still like the full-colour worksheets printed on high quality paper and posted to you at home. You will need to provide your own penholder, POINTED nib, ink and either a coloured or metallic paint ( not ink ).  All these items are available on our webshop if there's an item you need to buy.

Emailed Worksheets Only

By booking the workshop with this ticket option you save on the kit and postage altogether!! We will email the worksheets to you to print at home yourself. You will need to provide your own penholder, POINTED nib, ink and either coloured or metallic paint ( not ink ).  All these items are available on our webshop if there's an item you need to buy.
