In this 1-Day (4+ hour) Workshop, students enjoy an in-depth study of the Formal Italic Alphabet through demonstration and revealing exercises. 
We study each of the components of the alphabet – what makes it look the way it does – and use this information to determine how your personal Italic can be improved. We begin with pen angle, structure, branching and shape.
You’ll learn how to fix new, old and “yucky” pens so they become “good” pens. You’ll learn how to make gouache and watercolor flow beautifully through your pen. Become your own teacher and be the “Boss” of your tools.
