Q: How do I start learning calligraphy?

I have got you covered! There are so many styles of calligraphy on offer that its often very confusing. You may want to learn one style and stick to it, or do several. You need to start slowly and learn how to hold consistent pen angles. I think italic is a very good place to start. If you want to do cursive styles only, then a beginners modern calligraphy is definitely the place to begin. I am passionate about teaching beginners and getting you up to steam quickly. I believe that there are quick wins, and am happy to pass these on to you. Watch this space for upcoming classes.

Q: 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.

Q: Colabs, Commissions, Activations and Events
