Enjoy learning the skills of applying gold leaf with exquisite effect and painting with gouache using a fine brush to create your own illuminated initial. You'll be carefully guided through the process of tracing down, gilding, decorating and detailing to produce a beautifully finished handmade letter. We will be working with Lombardic capitals on a gilded background, embellished with simple but stunning painted botanical illustrations. The designs are based on an alphabet from a fifteenth century French manuscript. Suitable for all levels of ability. All materials are included in the price. Fees are non-refundable except in the event of cancellation by the tutor. £58 2 places left
