TESTIMONIALS

“Thank you again for a truly wonderful weekend. Many of us have been attending workshops for decades but have never done anything like that before. The silence at times indicated how deeply immersed we were in what we were doing, and the results were so satisfying. You brought so many ideas and your own work was inspirational” (North Yorkshire Calligraphers)


We were very lucky to have the wonderful @gwynpen to guide us through this magical workshop yesterday. It was such an inspiring session that we could have happily continued for another four hours! Thank you Gwyneth!” (Hampshire Calligraphers)


Many thanks for a brilliant day. I haven’t learned so much in years! You are a great teacher and worked so hard for us. Please, do more workshops. I have neglected calligraphy for the last 30 years but it’s good to be back” (Beatrice – workshop participant)


" Thank you for today's workshop which was completely riveting! So much concentration you could have heard a pin drop. You've really opened our minds to how much fun gothic writing can be, and with the simplest of tools, too" (Mercian Scribes)


" I just wanted to drop you a line after the session today. Really, really useful. Lots of great new ideas and techniques. I thought the pace was spot on. Thank you so much for your time and sharing your talent with us all. Lots for us to experiment with."

(Andrew - workshop participant)
