But if you would like to be placed on the waiting list, please email us.

You’ve learned the basics and know your letterforms. Now learn how to make them even more beautiful with flourishes! But here comes the kicker: How do I do that? Do I flourish every letter? Do I make small, tight flourishes or big, loose ones? When do I stop? Help! No worries, we will cover all of that! In this class, you will learn how to flourish off of the individual letter by extending ascenders and descenders, entrance and exit strokes, and how to balance all of that on envelopes and larger pieces. You will learn the steps to make a graceful oval, how to critique our work, and exactly what to look for when you break it down. This class will help you take your envelopes and larger pieces to the next level!

Everything you need to know to properly address envelopes will be covered. The desk setup, the list, all of the dos and don’ts, and everything in between will he discussed. The morning is spent going over the material and the afternoon is all about addressing envelopes and applying what you’ve learned. This is a fun and informative class that will leave you ready to tackle even the trickiest address!

We will be using Zoom, an online video conferencing format.
