Romanik is a variation of a script inspired by the American calligrapher Carl Rohrs.
It is versatile for both brush and pen use. In this workshop, we will explore techniques using Automatic pens and Pilot Parallel pens.
The construction of Romanik letters is straightforward and enjoyable, with no rigid forms. We will experiment with adapting the letterforms to create unique variations of the script.
This workshop is suitable for beginners.
