Event Description

This workshop introduces you to basic skills with a focus on font characteristics and an intention to lead you to study the way to draw and build letter forms and symbols. You will learn the Art of Hand lettering" with readily available, inexpensive brushes and acrylic paint by employing tried and true "old-school" signpainter tricks combined with today's computer technologies.
Diagonal, horizontal and oblique strokes are the fundamental  of serif and san- serrif letters which type designers use to create " fonts."  Understanding the proper way to manipulate chisel shapped brushes, the novice can easily learn to create their own signage. Students will learn by demonstrating brush technique and manipulation and to hand letter on a substrate.
The Art of Hand Lettering will be applied our end task of designing and painting a personal sign for home or business. We will also choose simple silhouettes to enhance your designs.
