FAQs
What can we expect in these online workshops?
This is a live online workshop. After the initial introductions, we will dive straight into the fundamental concepts of Bullet journaling. We will learn how to customise and personalise your journal and make it work for you. In part two of the workshop we will cover the basics of Brush pen calligraphy and hand lettering using a fudenosuke pen. We start with basic letter formation and learn how to create beautiful thick and thin strokes. You will be guided throughout with clear step by step instructions and demonstrations.
I am a complete beginner – will I be able to do this workshop?
This workshop is suitable for complete beginners. No previous experience is required. Our workshops are led by Dr. Sai Banerjee, who is an experienced calligrapher and teaching artist. Having taught hundreds of students with varying skill levels, Sai is adept at recognising the challenges that a beginner might face. By following a step-by-step approach and allowing time for troubleshooting, Sai simplifies seemingly complex techniques to make it accessible for everyone.
I am left-handed. Is this workshop suitable for me?
Our workshops are suitable for everyone. Although Sai is right-handed, she has taught many students over the years that are lefties. If you are left-handed, you will be provided with lots of unique and useful tips and tricks to develop your Calligraphy practice.
My handwriting is terrible – can I still learn Brush pen Calligraphy?
Learning Calligraphy has nothing to do with your natural handwriting. Calligraphy involves learning a set of strokes that are used to build up your letterforms. Once you learn the technique, and practice regularly, Calligraphy is a skill anyone can learn regardless of their handwriting.
What age group is this workshop suitable for?
Our Calligraphy workshops are suitable for adults. Anyone over the age of 16 is welcome.
What are your class sizes?
Our class size for online workshops is 40 at the moment. However, our numbers may vary depending on the workshop.
Do we have to bring anything?
You will be given a supplies list before the workshop. If you wish to purchase a complete kit, we sell a bespoke Bullet journaling kit, which includes a stunning Moleskine journal, Micron pen, Pentel Signo white gel pen and other essential supplies
Do you teach private lessons?
Yes. I occasionally teach private lessons for small groups.
Are your classes Covid secure?
As these are live online classes, they are 100% covid secure!
If I am unable to attend the class can I get a refund?
If you wish to cancel due to unforeseen circumstances, you need to give us at least 2 weeks notice in order to get a full refund. If it’s less than 2 weeks we recommend that you reschedule and book another session as we run several workshops throughout the year.
