Learn to cultivate your personal style and express yourself through lettering from the sketch to the final product
Lettering aspires to make you feel, with its creative design, more than the word itself can express. That is the mantra of Teck24, a Colombian graffiti artist who, through calligraphy and lettering compositions, amplifies basic dictionary definitions.
In this course, travel down a creative path in which you learn to design letters by hand and exploit your creativity without limits hand in hand with an expert. Learn to trust your ideas as you experiment with new techniques, styles, and processes to find originality in your creations.

Kurs zdecydowanie dla osób, które mają już jakieś umiejętności z kaligrafii i graficzne. Wymagane jest oko do kompozycji i detali. Umiejętności i rady prowadzącego pomogą wykonać piękny i przyciągający uwagę tekstowy znak graficzny.
