About this class
In this two-part abstract calligraphy course near Frankfurt, you will discover writing as a free form beyond letters and meaning. You work with ink, pen, lines and surfaces and develop your own visual language step by step. Instead of legible words, movement, rhythm and feeling create personal works of art. A high-quality sketchbook and pen set will accompany you through both appointments and also serve as a creative practice space at home.
