The focus of this two-session introduction to Copperplate design will be a “first run” at taking the words of a text and finding a way to express them through a series of choices, including size, texture and color. We will work with a short text in order to prepare several possible layouts, with an eye toward effective design, rather than finished art.
​We encourage students to continue with Copperplate Design (2) for further experience in creating Copperplate artwork.
