Just returned from an inspiring weekend at the Big Sky Scribes fall workshop taught by Christopher Haanes. The more I learn, the more I am surprised that English and German styles of calligraphy are not considered to be as disparate from one another as they each are from ornamental penmanship.
This is the most generic shot of the copious demo sheets that Christopher created during three days of teaching. I can’t wait to get back in my studio and keep working on the things I saw this weekend. I’ll post some of my own workshop practice in the next few days.
