Online: Calligraphy - Beginner Pointed Nib

Jennie Pyatt reviewed: Petersfield: Full Day Calligraphy Workshop

"Learnt alot and enjoyed the whole day. For my daughter & I the pace was right, taking us through the importance of nib pressure, practice and having a go. Emily explained all extremely well, encouraged us all and made the day a lovely learning experience. Introducing us to both nib and brush modern calligraphy. Would recommend the course to a complete beginner and those who want to build some confidence. We came away feeling, with practice, modern calligraphy was in reach and achievable. Now to practice."

"Really enjoyed this introduction to modern calligraphy course. Danielle was a great teacher, she was well prepared, explained and demonstrated the basics really well and we covered a lot of ground in 2 1/2hours. Left feeling I would like to do more and went home to practise ! "

Carole Auden reviewed: West Midlands: Beginner Nib Calligraphy Workshop

"Looking for a ‘new’ craft challenge I was not disappointed with this morning session on Calligraphy. The session was well planned, well resourced, and extremely well delivered, and I would recommend this workshop to anyone interested in diving into calligraphy. My disappointment was of my own doing. I find I do not like ‘modern’ calligraphy, with the varying sizes of letters, swirls, and flourishes, which makes reading simple words quite difficult. I did, however, appreciate the challenges in producing controlled broad and fine lines, as well as the discipline of repetitive practice, and am now determined to continue with my own preference, that of modern Gothic calligraphy. This workshop was money well spent, and I came away from it with much more insight into calligraphic practices than I expected."

Sue Nicholson reviewed: Chichester: beginners taster workshop - full day

"Enjoyed the day but found it too much in one day. Would have preferred to go slower instead of a quick taster of lots of things. I’m not artistic and found the free time at the end excruciating as I found I was way behind everyone else. Had to leave early. Bought a pen and ink calligraphy set to practice at home."

The Modern Calligraphy Company responded:

"Hi Sue Thankyou for attending our Beginners Taster Day and for taking the time to write your review. We really do appreciate all comments made and these have been passed onto Emily (our tutor). I do hope you enjoy practising at home and if you have any questions, please do contact us. Best wishes Nadine"
