Graphite Explorations
2025-03-22 10:00 - 2025-03-23 17:00 (America/New_York) | Zoom
In this weekend workshop, we will be exploring the beloved pencil for fabulous marks, images & letters led by internationally known calligrapher/artist, Barbara Close. There won’t be any messy ink spills here! It will be a great experience seeing similar pointed pen or broad-edged looks come to the surface with our graphite. The textures are delicate and bold. It’s an exciting adventure.
This workshop will be on Zoom, March 22 & 23, 2025. 10 am – 5:00pm with a one hour break from 1:00 – 2:00pm EST.
