Ballpoint Calligraphy

Join Francesca Simon, a professional calligrapher, to learn the basics of drawing Italic style calligraphy. It doesn’t matter if you have “bad Handwriting”.

Calligraphy – the art of beautiful writing – can stimulate the artist within anyone. Learning to move the hand fluidly and to explore the beauty of shapes begins to help one see with the eye of an artist.

Writing is fundamental — it’s one of the first things we learn in school. But this computer age has deprived us of the intimacy of hand-written communication.

An intimate note, a handwritten poem or the address on a card may revive a memory and fill a heart with happiness. If you are ready to incorporate calligraphy into your creations, this class is for you.
