Beginner level

During a Lettering Workshop we draw letters and words. Maybe you need a logo, a personal business card, a blogg banner? Maybe you want to make a print for your living room wall or design your own birthday cards. Or maybe you just want to create ordinary or extraordinary letters by hand with a pencil.

It is called lettering, instead of writing letters you draw letters.

A Lettering Workshop contains talk about:
- material and tools
- letter anatomy
- different ways to collect inspiration
- different methods to create your own letters

Our focus will be on drawing as much as possible: learning by doing. I will present fun and creative assignments where you can develop your lettering from simple letter sketches to letterings with quotes.

Some of the assignments are:
- draw one letter in as many ways as you can
- draw different styles and fonts
- draw your name
- develop your own project

All material you need for the workshop is included in the ticket price. So is coffee/tea and snacks. You can bring your own food if you want something more to eat, we will have a shorter food break (about 20 min).
