This four-part online series is designed for those with a little calligraphy experience, although less experienced participants are very welcome too.
Workshop Details
This exciting series will see you learn how to use gouache on dark papers, develop a personal script, and create a small book using a haiku that you will write. As calligraphers, we typically reach for familiar texts as we learn a new script. Rarely do we imagine that our own words are worthy of our beautiful writing, and thus miss opportunities to connect ourselves more deeply and personally with our calligraphy.
Through simple Haiku poems this class provides an opportunity to explore linking the words we write with a script we develop—our personal expressions amplified and illuminated through the drama of color and gold on black paper. In addition to developing a personal script, students will have the opportunity to create a single section, pamphlet style book of their ‘illustrated” haikus.
Specific skills you will learn at the workshop:
Equipment & Materials List:
Materials are not included in the course fee. All the materials and equipment you will need are listed below. This list is for guidance only - you can improvise and source your own materials, either in advance or once you have seen the LivePlus™ workshop, giving you maximum flexibility to choose how you would like to approach this craft.
You needn't have the materials ready whilst watching the live demonstration – the demo sessions are a time to watch, ask and learn. After each demo you will be sent a link to the recording, which you can watch as many times as you wish for thirty days.
