Kari K.Reviewed on 02/19/20The class was fun, super educational, and had a lot of practice time for me to try my skills out. We were able to ask questions, get feedback, and have her draw more examples for us. Can't wait to take another class with Gwynn!

I really enjoyed the class! I now have a good foundation on what to practice, practice, practice to get better at Hand Lettering. The only thing that I didn't know going in, I thought we would be using brush pens since I got gifted those for my birthday and wanted to learn how to use them.

Class with Gwynn was great, and we received one on one attention. We started with the basics and moved through serif, sans serif, and ultimately cursive. Please note that this is a class for basic lettering, not brush calligraphy.

This class was such a great introduction to hand lettering! I learned a lot from the teacher and experienced it with a close knit, small group.

Gwynn was a rockstar!! She created a warm comfortable environment for the class. Her kind personality welcomed all questions, even if they were a little silly. The workbook and pens are the perfect tools for a beginners. I am very excited to explore this craft and hopefully will improve with time! 10/10 would take another class of hers!

Great class! Gwynn was super friendly and responsive to all of our questions and requests for demonstrations. Love that we got a book to take home to practice. I also loved that she reiterated that practice was the key to this, and that any of us can do it with patience and effort.

What a fun evening I had! The teacher is upbeat, always smiling, responsive to questions and very talented. Calligraphy and hand lettering requires a lot of practice, but also some technique. Gwynn give you the opportunity to feel confident, practice and acquire some tricks to get you going. She is very open with her knowledge and willing to share any tips which can make is easier. The booklet she has put together is very well done and such a great resource to take home, as well as the 2 pens and the note card which you create in class.
The venue is perfect: at the back of a plant shop in a really fun collective of artsy stores and restaurants.

What a great and fun class. Gwynn was really great. She provided very helpful handouts, taught well, and left plenty of time for individual attention. I'd love to take another class from her.

Intro to Creative Hand Lettering was a fun experience. Gwynn was knowledgeable and friendly. She encouraged lots of questions and offered many practical tips. The class was a great mix of people, from those just wanting to learning something new to those who wanted a skill to use in their work. Getting 2 different pens and a blank card and envelope for further practice was a great bonus!

Great class. Gwynn was super nice and was always happy to answer tons of questions during the class. We even got pens to take home which is more incentive to practice!
