General Workshop FAQs

What equipment I need to buy to start calligraphy?

In all my classes, I will show you exactly what you need and why. Each class gives a list of the supplies or materials which may be needed or recommended. Don’t fall into the trap of buying lots of equipment you don’t need or will never use. It’s expensive. In lots of my beginners classes, I supply all the equipment so that you can try out without having to buy anything. I also try and curate exactly what you need to help you through this.

How long does it take to learn calligraphy?

Calligraphy is a life-long learning journey. You can get going pretty quickly, and then just keep practicing by making things and giving them away. You do need to practice, but I don’t believe in repeating letters over and over. You learn much faster by actually doing. I will help you to make Calligraphy part of your life and not a time frame!
