A one day workshop with Denis Brown

Flourishes are perhaps where calligraphy is at its most calligraphic.
The spontaneous ejection from a letter stroke, accelerating into a freely
written flourish, is a joy to perform and behold. We will look at simple
flourishes and italic swash capitals, using Denis' method of dynamic
strokes and the one-shot let it fly approach
Tools

dip-pens: (Brause size 3mm & 4mm particularly suggested in addition
to students own preferred brand), ink, gouache paints, palette, mixing
brushes, ruler, pencils, eraser, compass, paper for practice and one
or two quality sheets.
