Italic Calligraphy Weekend Workshop with Anne Elser - April
Ponce City Market 2016
Workshop
Italic Calligraphy Weekend Workshop with Anne Elser 2 Sessions | Beginner to Intermediate | Price: $160 | Max. 15 ARTZPCM16430 | Saturday & Sunday, April 30th – May 1st, 11am – 4:30pm
The Italic calligraphic hand is one of the most widely used and versatile alphabets around. It's generously wide strokes, produced with a broad edge nib can easily be dressed up or down. Italic is the perfect hand to learn for the beginning calligrapher yet versatile enough to experiment with for the advanced.
During this two-day workshop, students will be given handouts and guide sheets, learning the upper and lower case characters. We will also cover spacing and layout for addressing envelopes.
Calligraphy is less about pretty handwriting and more about DRAWING each and every letter. It’s about establishing a pacing and rhythmic motion as you write - giving you a consistency of shapes and letters, and spaces in between words and lines. It is highly relaxing and meditative. Like yoga for the hands, it centers, calms, and enchants the person making as well as and the person admiring it.
About Anne
After earning a BFA in painting from the Cleveland Institute of Art and graduate studies in Graphic Design at The Portfolio Center, Anne Elser began her artistic career as a painter, bookbinder, designer, and calligrapher.
With over 20 years teaching experience, her students often report how fulfilling the classroom experience is, prompting both personal and artistic transformations. Anne's classes are also FUN and full of laughter and you will find the sense of community she inspires enriching and entertaining.
To complement and better serve Atlanta's calligraphic and book arts communities, Anne recently founded "The Atlanta Penablers" a group that meets occasionally throughout the year and helps facilitate the visiting calligraphic instructor workshops held at the Binders Art School.
Artist, calligrapher, teacher, mother, and friend, Anne believes making art creates a channel for truth and is a soulful reflection of the connections shared by all.
