Ghostly Gothicized Italic

Please join us Sat. October 19 at 10 a.m. at Bell Tower Arts Pavilion, 3270 Glendale Milford Rd., Cincinnati, OH 45241for our monthly meeting. Amy Owens will be leading us learning Gothicized Italic. We will focus on the lowercase letters and will have guide sheets for use with a 3.8 mm Pilot Parallel Pen.

Supplies to bring:

  • 3.8 mm Pilot Parallel Pen (or a Mitchell Roundhand size 0, or similar size nib)
  • Your favorite ink loaded into it.
  • Paper, just in case


Other News

Several of us brought artwork to be hung in the main Arts Center building. If there is interest we can view it on  Saturday after the meeting. Thanks to all who contributed. It will be up until the beginning of January, I believe. 

We also lined out most of the meetings for the year. I’m really excited about our April mini-workshop meeting.

News from IAMPETH

Amy Owens is a member at large for IAMPETH and she wanted me to mention that they have several scholarships available for the conference. If you’ve never been to a calligraphy conference I highly suggest attending at least once. They are so educational and hanging with like minded calligraphers is always a fun time.
