Watercolour Brush Lettering Workshop
Tuesday 9th June 2026, 6.30pm - 9pm
£40.00
Please note no physical ticket will be posted to you.
Come and join me at my studio for a relaxing and informal workshop where you will learn all the essentials of getting started with calligraphy using a brush and watercolours in order to make your own colourful, hand lettered prints.
During this 2-2.5 hour workshop you will learn all the basics of brush calligraphy, from loading your brush, creating the foundation strokes, building lowercase and uppercase letters to joining them together to write words and phrases. By the end of the session you will take away your own brush lettered colourful print and card, as well as all the knowledge you have learnt so that you can keep practicing and lettering at home.
During the full session, I will be on hand to guide you through the steps with hands on demonstrations and instruction, as well as provide 1:1 support to anyone that needs it along the way. All materials are supplied during this workshop as well as some refreshments to enjoy during the session.
The session will take place at my studio:
Letters by Jenni @ The Makers Millhouse, Wymondham Windmill, Butt Lane,
Wymondham, Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire LE14 2BU
There is a free car park on site.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I learn if I am left-handed?
Absolutely! It's a common misconception that lefties can't learn calligraphy, but this is completely false and I have taught many left handers during my workshops and courses. Whilst I am right-handed myself, I can still guide you through how to get started in brush calligraphy.
Do I have to have good hand-writing?
Not at all. In fact, my own is terrible - honestly! Again this is another common misconception with calligraphy, but lettering and hand-writing are 2 very different skills. It's important to know that no one is born with the skill of beautiful calligraphy and all it takes is lots of time, patience and practice and anyone can learn.Â
Do I need any previous experience?
This workshop is designed for complete beginners, so no prior experience is needed and you will be fully guided and supported by me during the session.Â
What will I learn during the workshop?
My 2-2.5 hour workshops are designed to be a taster introduction into brush calligraphy, to help you get a feel for this mindful craft. You will learn all of the basics you need to know to get started and leave with your own hand lettered pieces of artwork. If you want to take your learning a step further I offer additional courses and resources.
About Jenni
Hey, I'm Jenni! I'm a calligrapher, illustrator and designer with over 20 years experience working in the creative industry working as a designer and artist. It was during a battle with postnatal depression following the birth of my second child in 2017 when I first started my hand-lettering journey as a way to destress and improve my mental health.
From that moment, I completely fell in love and I went on to build a multi-award winning calligraphy business providing wedding calligraphy, hand personalised gifts and workshops. I am very passionate about sharing my love of hand-lettering with others and promoting positive mental health through the art of creativity.
