This Saturday, July 25, 2009 --- 2-4 p.m.
Latino/Hispanic Community Meeting Room, Lower Level, Main Library
Sherrie Lovler demonstrates lettering in color on black paper.
Black paper can be the background for pen-based lettering of brilliant, solid color, as well as the host for subtle colors and variations. She will show how she loads the pen, changes color and sets the stage for happy accidents in color combinations to arise.
Sherrie Lovler has a BA in Studio Art, and has taught calligraphy since 1977 through art centers, adult education programs and privately. Her mentor, Dick Beasley, hired her to take over his beginning calligraphy classes at Northern Arizona University. She has taught at four of the International Calligraphy Conferences, Ghost Ranch and leads workshops around the country on color and design. Her work can be seen in Letter Arts Review, Bound & Lettered, Alphabet and The Art & Craft of Hand Lettering. Sherrie has a successful calligraphy print business, selling through her website: www.inkmonkey.com.
This demonstration is a part of Kalligraphia 12, co-sponsored by the Friends of Calligraphy and the Marjorie G. and Carl W. Stern Book Arts and Special Collections Center of the San Francisco Public Library. For a schedule of remaining demonstrations and more information about Kalligraphia 12, visit our previous post.
