The Italic hand was first developed during the Italian Renaissance to be used by scholars, diplomats and papal scribes. Today, it is one of the most prevalent, expressive and versatile scripts available to the calligrapher. This class will study the construction of these beautiful letters, focusing on proportion, rhythm and spacing.

Studying Italic will provide you with the structure for continuing a more formal study of calligraphy and/or improving your everyday handwriting.

In this three-session class, you will begin by using pencil and then quickly move on to using pen and ink as you learn the letterforms.
