    FRIDAY,  March 6, 2025,  6:30-8PM PDT  

    In Violet Smythe's repertoire is an appealing workshop, Round and Sweep -Pencil Cap Letters (Stylized Monoline Romans). In this study group session, she gives us a taste, Give it a Whirl. We'll be offering future workshops with Violet and you'll want to check this out!

    Violet will present her fun pencil capitals, written in a "swirl". 

    No charge for these Study Group Sessions. They are often led by members, who do not claim to be masters, sharing what they have learned. There is no requirement to have attended prior sessions. The aim is to share knowledge with newbies and to provide a refresher for those with more experience. Each individual Romans Study Group session requires separate registration. We plan to record this session. Kristi asks that you remind her! Recording will be available for two months. 

    Flexible Schedule for the evening:

    6:30 - 6:45 Announcements. 

    6:45 - 7:45 Violet  will demo.

    7:45 - 8:00 An opportunity for those who wish to share what they've completed before or during this session--we always love to see what our fellow lettering artists are up to. Also, there is time to ask more questions of our speaker.
