Calligraphy can be a wonderful art form, an addition to your creative play or a meditative, physical outlet! This interactive Zoom-based class will give you guidance on how to use a modern, pointed brush marker to lay down strokes and build up floral designs. Learning how to use and exploit the flexibility of a pointed brush on botanical embellishments will train the hand to create elegant lines. </div>

This canvas banner served as the schedule of activities for the evening and to welcome the guests. Each element used the wedding logo to help carry out the theme throughout the venue.<br />

Calligraphy can provide special details.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Your invitations are the first glimpse your guests get of your special day. The envelope is as important at the full invitation suite. If you do not have time to hand address each of your invitation in your best hand writing, then it is important to line up a calligrapher to take care of that task.</div>
