Calligraphy weekend: Brush Spencerian with Paul Antonio Scribe
Date: Saturday, June 22 and Sunday, June 23
Location: Neilson Park Creative Centre
The Calligraphic Arts Guild of Toronto wants you to join us for a weekend filled with beautiful strokes and elegant lettering! Learn the art of Brush Spencerian from the internally-acclaimed, Paul Antonio Attong (www.pascribe.com). This in-person and virtual two-day workshop at Neilson Park Creative Centre is perfect for calligraphy enthusiasts looking to enhance their skills. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to learn from a master calligrapher!
Paul has said of his Brush Spencerian course: "If you have been thinking about learning Spencerian but daunted by its fearful balancing of ink, nib and paper, this workshop will give you a great inroad to a more immediate approach to the script." Paul developed this course in 2019 and have been working on refining it. The aim of the course is two-fold. First, you will learn the script with a 6B pencil which will help you feel the shapes better. This is an excellent foundation to prepare you for learning the script with a brushpen, and eventually a pointed flexible metal nib in either a straight or an oblique penstaff. This is a hybrid course with in-person as well as an online zoom option.
Registration in this course also gives you access to the pre recorded version of approximately 20 hours for 6 months.
Materials list will be emailed to participants.
10:15am-3:45pm both days, with a 30-minute break for lunch.
Cost is for both days: $250 CAGT members / $275 non-members
Virtual option also available: $230
