Class Description

Description

Do you love to write, but wish your handwriting looked better? Do you long to send more handwritten notes? Do you love making fancy, swirly letters and doodling? This is the perfect class for you!

You’ll first be led through a full review of proper cursive script letterforms and their structure, according to the gold standard of the Zaner Bloser method: lower case letters, upper case letters, numbers and punctuation. We will also explore proper line placement, size, slant, and the proportion of letters as we write. 

Connecting letters for ideal spacing is also an important detail. We will practice it ALL!

Kathy will also show you how to successfully add some flourishy details and doodles to help you create your own style!

Please note: 

This is not a calligraphy class; no ‘dip pen’ is used. This class focuses on cursive writing forms, and is open to tweens, teens and adults. Bring a pen friend!

Materials Lis:

All you need are pens and lined paper!
