FAQ :
Who is the ideal student for this course ?
This workshop is great for beginners as well as intermediate level students who want to improve their skills.
Do I need to know Copperplate ?
Absolutely not. I will introduce you to this elegant script step by step.
I have learnt copperplate calligraphy on my own. Can I still join this workshop ?
Yes you can. Even if you already know copperplate calligraphy, do join to add a bit of a polish to your copperplate. It’s a Live class, so you can get all your queries resolved on the spot.
I have learnt lowercase from you. Can I still join the workshop to learn only uppercase ?
Absolutely. I am glad we have already done lowercase together. It will be a lot more fun to learn uppercase too. We are also offering FLAT 30% discount for previous students. So you will revise your lowercase learnings & you will learn uppercase also. Use code INB30 at the time of registration to avail this discount.
What supplies do I need?
Nothing fancy. Just grab your favourite pointed pen supplies & be ready with all the enthusiasm. You will get digital handouts from us. If you are completely new the world of calligraphy, do check out our ‘Copperplate Starter kit’.
Can I learn calligraphy even if my handwriting is bad?
Yes, absolutely. Handwriting & calligraphy are totally different things. You don’t need perfect handwriting to learn calligraphy. I know many amazing calligraphers whose handwriting is not so good.
