APRIL

The program in April was a continuation of a previous meeting. Anita shared with us more of what she learned in a class with Ewan Clayton at Calligraphy Northwest.

It was explained that this teaching was based on the work of Rudolph Laban, a pioneer of modern dance. 
Ewan adapted his system to encourage a deep awareness of calligraphic stroke quality and possibility.  We tried to interpret his analysis of movement with force, direction and speed in eight combinations with our stroke making.
