In this class, you will learn how to use watercolor for calligraphy and try a variety of colorful techniques. You will learn how to write with several colors to create a gradient in your letters, how to use an ornament nib and a pointed nib to dip one color into the other and how to make your colors flow in various directions while writing. The most important thing is to enjoy the process and have a good time creating. I promise you some good eyegasms. 🙂
