Zentangle and Calligraphy

ZENTANGLE

The art of Zentangle was created by Maria Thomas and Rick Roberts.  It is in art form which can be enjoyed by any age group and can be accomplished by anyone who has the ability to hold a pen.  In other words – You don’t have to be an artist!  Rick and Maria say,”Anything is possible one stroke at a time.”  and that is certainly true of Zentangle.

Dip pen on Spencerian Project

handwriting certainly presents a positive or negative impression.  Putting pen to paper records your personality in words and can be treasured for many years. 

We teach the Getty-Dubay cursive italic style of handwriting or the Sull’s Handwriting System: American Cursive Handwriting style for those who want a clean, legible script.  Sull’s System is comparable to the Palmer method and is a contemporary derivative of Spencerian.
