‘Akim Cursive’ is a hand created by calligrapher Hans-Joachim Burgert and is said to replicate the rhythm of the
human heart.

We will briefly explore Burgert's version, then move into more expressive variations using several different tools. We’ll finish off with a small composition.

 

All skill levels welcomed!

This class has been designed at the request of former students who have seen this pen in action. It is my most favorite tool, and I can’t wait to share it with you!
 

Come find out more about this fabulous, versatile writing tool designed by artist/calligrapher, Brody Neuenschwander.

 

You will learn how the pen responds to different hand and arm movements; different fluids; and different papers.
