Brush pen calligraphy is a great way for beginners to learn the foundations of pointed pen calligraphy without being intimidated by traditional pens, nibs, or inks. This class is a great complement to Just A Dip - which features ink and nib. In this class you will learn the fundamental technique to pointed pen calligraphy but use a brush pen to achieve the distinct thin and thick strokes characteristic of modern calligraphy. Brush pens are a great tool to use for on-the-go creativity.

In this class you will learn how to hold a brush pen along with the basic strokes to create letterforms, and we’ll work towards combining those letterforms to make words and sentences. The versatility of this type of calligraphy is endless!

At the end of class you’ll leave with two beginner-friendly brush pens, take-home guide sheets, and the know-how to continue your calligraphy journey
