In this class we will begin with one’s own handwriting and work with it visually as a means of expression. We will incorporate writing exercises and poetry to include the auditory and tactile aspects of making words. Students will learn ways to make their handwriting have rhythm and beauty, as well as including poetic facets of assonance and alliteration.
Each student will take home a small handmade book. This class is for anyone interested in hand lettering, watercolor, bookmaking and poetry in a contemplative atmosphere. All levels of experience are welcome.
