About the experience

Experience Duration : 1 hrs 30 mins
Experience Summary:

Beginner friendly creative workshop combining hand lettering with repurposing, reusing and upcycling.

Lettering & Upcycling happens every 3rd Monday of the month at The Remakery, Brixton, with alternating themes: Lettering Collage, and Hand Lettered Jars and Labels. Check my experiences for more dates and themes.

Detailed description:

Learn hand lettering techniques and apply them to upcycling projects. Beginners welcome :)

A unique hand lettering workshop with a focus on sustainability. Learn hand lettering techniques and use them to jazz up your home decor, create personalised gifts, and make art from repurposed materials. No previous art experience necessary.

In the first part of the workshop we will practice lettering techniques with pencil on paper, before moving onto layout and composition and working on our individual projects.

You will choose one or more lettering styles to practise, and learn to create a composition with your hand lettered word, slogan or message, and collage from paper scraps.

All materials will be provided; you are also welcome to bring your own pens, magazines or paper scraps to upcycle, or anything you would like to include in your project.

Lettering Collage is one of the themes of  Lettering & Upcycling, a monthly workshop recurring on the third Monday of the month, with alternating themes. Check my profile for dates and more info about the other themes. 

If you have any questions about the workshop, do not hesitate to message me :)

About the host

Hello! I'm Val, London based lettering artist and graphic designer. Since I started practicing hand lettering in 2014, I have turned this passion into a business, painted personal commissions, sold my work at art markets, worked with brands and painted large scale pieces such as chalkboards and shop windows. I now teach hand lettering workshops where I share my tips and techniques for drawing type and turning it into art.
