~~~~~~~~~~ Tracing the Threads ~~~~~~~~~~
Introducing a five-day calligraphy workshop I am teaching in Mittagong
in the beautiful Southern Highlands of NSW at Sturt Australian
Contemporary Craft & Design winter school- June 30 to July 4, 2014
In Tracing the Threads the participants will explore the importance of lineage through the works of five English 20th & 21st century calligraphers, Edward Johnston, Irene Wellington, Sheila Waters, Gaynor Goffe & Ewan Clayton. We will enjoy and examine their work and their philosophies, recreate samples of their work in an effort to understand the importance in sound lineage so we can move forward from formal roots to freedom of personal statement.
The calligraphy of each will be analysed and recreated to build a small, unbound portfolio to help in tracing the threads to sew our own evolving calligraphic tapestry. This class will be open to beginner, intermediate and advanced students. Give yourself some really good foundations upon which to build.
The venue is a 1.5 hour drive by car or train trip south of Sydney
