The calligraphic line, with its fluidity and beauty, is not just for calligraphers to use. In this one-day class, where no calligraphy experience is needed, we will focus on using different brushes and hand-made tools to experience the lines and textures they make. We will also use our handwriting as a place to begin to make calligraphic gestures. Some work with gold leaf and working on black paper will be included.
