Description

Romans have been our calligraphic foundation through the decades. They have a fascinating history of which we still follow, with a few adjustments. In this course we will begin with a solid understanding of these beautiful, classic letterforms, then take them in another direction of abstracting, stretching, playing and not being afraid of these gentle giants. By taking a more playful approach, we can let go of the “perfection” and enjoy the process and still understand the beautiful forms. Join us for the fun exploration and conquer these Rebel Romans.
