SUMMARY:September Workshop - Every Letter is a Jewel with Julie Wildman

Milwaukee Street\, Denver\, CO 80210. Members have priority registration until July 31\, then the workshop is open to the general public. \nRegistrations will be accepted on a first-come\, first-serve basis.

For a list of workshop policies\, go to https://www.coloradocalligraphers.com/about-2/policies/. Please contact Ann Hiemstra with questions at president@coloradocalligraphers.com. \n\n\n\nThis is an online Zoom class with full interaction with the instructor during class time. The supply list is attached below and handouts will be sent prior to the first class. The zoom link will be sent a few days before the start of the workshop. This workshop will be recorded and available to view for two months until December 5\, 2025. \nWorkshop Description\nThese drawn and painted letters are sure to delight every calligrapher\, from beginner to advanced. \nStudents will be led through a series of exercises that will help them create their own unusual letterforms. The letters will be drawn within a 3” x 3” format—which helps the student see both the positive and negative space of each letter\, and thus helps with understanding how the letter is formed. \n\n\n\nA variety of mediums will be used to create our little “jeweled” letters. Media will include gesso and masking fluid resist\, gouache\, watercolor\, metallic watercolors and dry pigments\, paint pens\, etc. We will also work on both white and black papers to achieve different effects. \nAbout Julie\nJulie Wildman is a professional graphic designer\, lettering artist and instructor. Her studio is in northwest Indiana\, only 30 minutes from downtown Chicago. \nHer calligraphic interest began in the late ‘80s after a friend gave her Timothy Botts’ book “Doorposts\,” and she saw the written word illustrated in such a way as never before. About ten years later\, she had the privilege of taking a year-long class with an internationally known calligrapher and was hooked. She joined the Chicago Calligraphy Collective soon after and embarked on a lifelong journey of studying letters. \nSince then\, her work has been exhibited in juried shows throughout the Midwest and the U.S.\, including the Newberry Library in Chicago. \nIn 2007 and 2014\, her pieces “Psalm 117” and “An Alphabet Book\,” respectively\, won the Newberry’s Purchase Prize Award and became a part of the Library’s permanent collection. Her work has also been published in many issues of Letter Arts Review\, Bound & Lettered\, and various other type and lettering publications. Two of her more recent works\, “Merton Quote” and “Psalm 97:1\,” have been purchased by the San Francisco Public Library (SFPL) and a private donor for the Harrison Collection at the SFPL. \nShe loves line\, shape\, color\, texture\, paper\, ink\, and paint and often can’t believe she gets to play with them for a living! She enthusiastically shares her love of “beautiful writing” with young and old by teaching calligraphy for staff development classes\, on-site promotional events\, community programs and personal growth workshops throughout the Chicagoland area\, U.S.\, and Canada. And now with Zoom classes\, she has taught students from more than 22 countries around the world. \nFor a complete curriculum vitae and to see more of her work\, please visit her website at wildmandesigns.com \n\n\n\nE: julie@wildmandesigns.com\nIG: juliewildmandesigns\nFB: wildmandesigns\n\nEveryLetterJewel-SupplyList
