This four-hour, early intermediate workshop covers some of modern calligraphy’s most fun, popular techniques. You’ll learn how to write with gouache, calligraphy’s most versatile color medium, and how to achieve opaque white lettering on dark paper. Emphasis will be placed on refining and playing with letterforms – both upper and lowercase – with guidance on how to create your own unique style. We will also cover troubleshooting techniques for common issues faced by working calligraphers.
Whether you’ve taught yourself or learned from a teacher, if you can hold a calligraphy pen and write full words then this class is right for you! If you’ve ever taken one of my beginner workshops then you definitely qualify.
All the supplies you’ll need for the workshop, including a beautifully-packaged, deluxe kit, are included in the ticket price. This workshop includes:
- 4 hours of instruction time with Molly Suber Thorpe
- 2 tubes of calligraphy-grade gouache
- 2 different pen nibs

- 2 mixing jars

In this 3-hour class, we will learn the basics of watercolor and will go onto painting fun floral designs! We will first go over tools that the instructor prefers to use then cover different watercolor techniques. Once we’ve gone through the material, students will practice making watercolor strokes and washes before going onto painting flowers and leaves. At the end of this class, you will be able to leave with your finished watercolor floral painting, own set of painting supplies and a fun new skill set that can be used for future projects! Each student will take home a watercolor starter kit, 13 page worksheet and a floral watercolor print for inspiration.
You can send any of your questions to chasinglinen@gmail.com. Please be sure to include the workshop title and date in the subject.
