New Calligraphy Courses

I so enjoy the first few weeks of a new year. It often rains in Johannesburg with spectacular lightening skies and rain storms which seem to clear the air and certainly clear the mind!

This is when I start re-planning notes, writing new courses and continue to work on my creative pieces.

New classes begin at the end of January 2011. If you are interested please contact Anne-Marie at dmoore@iafrica.com. Booking is essential as classes fill up quickly and there is limited studio space.

Monday afternoon: 16h00 - 18h00
Begins 24 January 2011
Beginners: Explore the History of Letterform from Hieroglyphics to Foundational
Create several finished pieces including cards and concertina books
Course: 4 Months, cost R500 for 4 lessons. Notes and equipment extra
Minimum of 4 students

Thursday morning: 09h30 - 12h00
Begins 20 January 2011
Ongoing Group: Thursday morning classes will focus on environmental calligraphy, creativity and projects.
With Foundational as the working hand, students will hone their knowledge of this, the most inspirational hand, using it as the basis for further study and development.
In a year long programme, students will explore the history of Foundational and its development. Calligraphers continue with creative letter form using photographic images, audiovisual presentations and poetry as reference. With nature as inspiration students will complete several books, wall hangings and paper banners.
The year's work will culminate in an exhibition in November 2011.
Cost of class: R500 for four weeks.

Saturday classes for a minimum of four people by arrangement only. 

A reminder that booking is essential.  Contact: Anne-Marie dmoore@iafrica.com
