St. Louis Calligraphy Guild Workshop

St. Louis Calligraphy Guild

We welcome artist and calligrapher Jacqueline Sullivan to St. Louis for her Workshop: Lively and Luscious Layers

This class is about building a calligraphic painting layer by layer.
Students will work on paper with water colors. Transparent washes will be layered with various styles of broad edged or brush lettering, mark making and abstract handwriting to form a luscious abstract work. The class will emphasize self expression through calligraphic works and words. Final works may or may not be legible. See Jacqueline’s work at http://www.jacquelinesullivan.com
