Despite its reputation as a rigid and formal bookhand, Gothic Textura is a versatile script and that lends itself to a wide range of variations and hybridizations. In this ZOOM class, students will learn a basic Gothic Textura minuscules and majuscules that can be readily modified into a personalized Blackletter style to suit one's preferences. Class will be from 10AM-noon with a one hour lunch resuming at 1PM-3PM on December 5th and 6th. Recordings will be available for 90 days. Class is $125.
