Calligraphy

This past Sunday I went to a workshop organized by the Society for Calligraphy. The leader was Ed Fong, a long-time calligrapher for the City of Los Angeles. He showed us examples of work from his office (including a series of comic signs that were for in-office fun) and then he showed us his method of adding dramatic watercolor clouds and texture around the calligraphy. It was a lot of fun - and I can see using it in some projects I have in mind. It was nice to have a day of creativity.
