Playful Lettering Part 2

  • Helen's Handmade Books Stable Studio 1, Stapleford Granary, Stapleford CB22 5BP (map)

In this workshop we’ll take the lessons learnt from the Playful Lettering workshop and take a saying or short piece of writing to script in our favourite style and learn how to take this forward to an artists’ book with cutout lettering. 

The workshop will start by working with out chosen playful lettering style and refine it, looking at the best way to join letters so that they run well together when cut out.

The design of the lettering will be considered and planned for the best visual impact, along with visual imagery to include into your artists’s book to complement the writing.

You will leave with a beautiful concertina artists’ book encased in a loose paper cover to complete your piece.

To join the Playful Lettering Part 2 workshop you will have needed to complete a Playful Lettering workshop.
