Medieval Illuminated Lettering is an art form that goes back centuries. The opening letter of a chapter in an ancient book is certainly something beautiful to behold. Using real gold and strong pigment paints these letters were painstakingly created by monks hundreds of years ago. Using watercolour, coloured pencils, and gold leaf in this workshop, you will be able to create a small letter of your choice in just one day. Some letters to copy will be provided but if you have a favourite initial you would like to work with, please Google ‘Royalty Free Medieval Letters’ and you are bound to find something that appeals to you.
