Join Kerri Forster for this three-part series- her classes have previously sold out, and you won’t want to miss this opportunity!

Workshop Description:

Discover the expressive elegance of the filament pointed brush—a tool with delicate hairs that opens up a world of creative possibilities far beyond the foam tip. In this hands-on class, you’ll learn how to control and explore this brush through a series of lettering projects designed to build your confidence and skill.
With three sessions spaced one month apart, you’ll have time to practice and play between classes, allowing your proficiency to grow naturally. Whether you're new to brush lettering or looking to expand your creative toolkit, this class is all about exploration, expression, and joy. Experience is an asset but not essential.
