Most courses, books and practice guides focus on letters. Let's spend some time just on numbers!

What we'll do:
- Pen control skills for getting in the number groove
- How to break down the components of number strokes to polish them up
- Numbers that combine well with Copperplate, Spencerian or Modern scripts
- Multiple variations of each digit 0-9 for aesthetic options and variety
- How and when to drop numbers below the baseline
- How to mix numbers and letters (we're looking at you, Canada & UK postal codes!!)
- A bit on Roman numerals, ordinal numbers and punctuation associated with numbers
All skill levels are welcome but I won't be covering the basics of how to use a dip pen. (You could use a pencil or a brush pen!)
@piecescalligraphy
You have an amazing way with words. I love how you explain things as you teach. Super clear and helpful!
@arleensugano
I love that you went beyond the extra mile…the detail, the explanation, both in class and to re-articulate the lesson on paper.
@melissabakercalligraphy
I enjoyed your class so much!! The way you describe each stroke direction was fantastic!!

I am in awe of how much comfortable I feel with numbers in just two classes. My envelopes are about to look a LOT better!!
