What You Will Learn?

  • A beginner level class on the basics of brush lettering taught by Watercolorist and Lettering artist, Brookelle from Soulfully Printed Art & Design.  .
  • Have you ever wondered how people can make words look so beautiful?  And have you ever thought, “I could never make something that pretty by hand..”?.
  • My goal for this class is to show you that YES, you CAN make something beautiful and artistic, even if you don’t consider yourself the artistic type.  (I know this, because I had the same thoughts just a year and a half ago!).
  • I want to break down the very basic building blocks of brush lettering for you, so you can see, understand, and apply these simple concepts to create something you love.  .
  • The fundamentals we will cover:.
  • By the end of this class, you will be able to create a beautiful, hand-lettered phrase that you can hang on your fridge, frame, or even gift to a friend! .
  • Whether you have been lettering for years, or haven’t ever picked up a brush pen--you can gain something from this class.  Mastering the fundamentals will give you a strong foundation on which you can build your own unique, artistic style..
