Saturday, March 22nd – Uncial by Mary Ellen Ross
Our March Meeting will be devoted to learning or reviewing the Uncial Alphabet
MARY ELLEN ROSS will be teaching this month, and this will be a treat!!
Uncial is a favorite of many calligraphers. Sheila Waters enjoyed the “simplicity and the speedy rhythme of the early letters.” Annie Cicale states in her book, The Art and Craft of Hand Lettering, “The wide open shapes of Uncial make it very legible and suprisingly adaptabele to modern use, even though it combines forms that don’t conform to the rules of modern alphabet design.”
Be sure to come on Saturday March 22, to enjoy learning and using this interesting and versatile alphabet! Be sure to bring the Handouts!!
The Handouts for this March Meeting contain the list of supplies you need to bring, in addition to the examplars and other helps for learning Uncial.
Please go to the 2025 Handouts tab at the top of this page and print out the March handouts to use in this meeting.
You will need the handouts for our Saturday Meeting!
