What you'll learn:

Explore and examine Foundational hand with Patti Adams. This visually simple hand is considered a staple in the broad edge calligrapher's toolbox, perfect for it's legibility and familiar letterforms. Mix it with pointed pen, other broad edge hands, or let it shine on its own. 

  • Pen angle and principle strokes of the hand.
  • Construction of the upper and lowercase alphabets
  • The proportions, shapes, counters and branching, and spacing of letterforms
  • Exploration of variations of the letterforms.

BONUS: Patti will teach letterforms from exemplars of both Sheila Waters and Ann Camp as well as her own preferred variations.
