Program Description

Graceful and decorative flourishes are a sure way to add interest and energy to any letter. In this program, we will learn what a flourish is and how to put them on our Copperplate capitals. We’ll review some tried-and-true basic flourishes as well as how we can embark upon a more experimental, built-up style of flourishing. For those following along, it is highly recommended that you have some Copperplate experience.
