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 on letters from a Renaissance style known as White Vine. Suitable for all levels of ability. The workshop will be live online via Zoom in two 2-hour sessions with an hour's lunch break. • The morning runs from 10am to noon • The afternoon runs from 1pm to 3pm • A further 30-minute session for questions and sharing will round off the day This course requires you to download the free Zoom app. A link to join the class will be sent near the date.
