Learn Sign Painting
With Christopher Rouleau
The deadline for this opportunity has passed.
This new two-day workshop, in partnership with UPPERCASE Magazine and Mona Lisa Art Supplies, teaches the fundamentals of traditional sign painting.
Participants will learn about best practices, sign painting tools, and have the opportunity to paint up to four styles of alphabet using both showcard tempera paint, with a demonstration on how to use professional enamel paint. This is an intermediate-level workshop. All participants should come with a working knowledge of typography and hand-lettering fundamentals. Experience with type design, drafting, drawing, and painting is a bonus. Materials will be provided, and all participants will take home their own brushes and sign painting workbook.
