Revisiting our calligraphic foundations is often a good strategy, especially if our intention is to make room for fresh perceptions and new “builds”. This was true at our October Colleagues program, thanks to Kris MacDonald and Lori Tews
In this fascinating class with artist Gemma Black, students were led down the path of fully understanding and internalizing the details, nuances, and characteristics of pre-copperplate hands.
In “Looking Back to Looking Forward” Gemma illuminated the fascinating history of calligraphy and other writing systems, from the early Egyptians to the 21st century.
