Brush Lettering Workshop @ The Stockroom

This class is taught by Casey Schuurman, an emerging Typographer and Lettering artist and recent graduate of Melbourne’s Old School New School for Design and Typography Program in Type Design and Hand Lettering. 

Brush Script is a technique developed in the American advertising industry during the 20th century. It’s sophisticated, expressive and allows you to personalise your own typographic projects with some handcrafted flair.

This workshop will guide you through the fundamentals of Brush Script – grasping the basic strokes used for developing beautifully balanced letterforms. You’ll walk away with an improved knowledge of applying hand-lettering skills which can be used for a range of other lettering and design projects!

ABOUT THE STOCKROOM

The stockroom of most institutions, museums and galleries is the space known for storing the most amount of work “not for public display”… Until now.

Bringing to the public eye, a part of the art world usually considered private, elitist, and often kept behind closed doors is the ‘The Stockroom’. Hosting work from emerging and established artists of various disciplines, the stockroom is the perfect platform to engage new audiences and educate them on the vast array of talent existing in urban art today.

With the ethos that art is for everyone and belief that anyone can start their own collection the stockroom carries affordable entry level works right through to higher end statement pieces. Hosting regular exhibitions that showcase new bodies of work from a stable of local and international talent, with a keen focus on engaging the local community.
