What will we do:

We plan to do Illuminated Lettering, also known as “versals “.

A versal is a large capital letter used to start out a word, poem, verse, name, or song.

We will be decorating them in a variety of ways, using both watercolor and pen and ink.  (Pens will be provided)

We will make use of both positive and negative spaces to make our designs expressive, unique and fun!
