— Kerr Pelto will teach:

  • June 6th, “Easy Peasy Brush Lettering.”
  • July 9th, “Uncial, a Medieval Script.”

These all-day classes actually go by quickly. And they are easy classes, so you won’t be overloaded. My brush lettering class has easy handouts that just about explain themselves. The Uncial class only has 26 letters to learn instead of 52. I can take up to 12 students, 6 per table, but I will hold a class if I get at least 5 students. Each class is $90. Contact Kerr at kerrlligraphy@gmail.com for details.
