Enquiries welcome!


Gemma offers one-on-one, personal lessons to discerning students of calligraphy anywhere in the world. This guidance is specifically designed to help students further their existing lettering skills or for them to learn a completely new hand.

 

Gemma is not only a skilled calligrapher and artist, but also a highly respected tutor nationally and internationally. Gemma is now pleased to offer personal instruction designed specifically to the interest and level of the individual student. Full handouts are provided for each lesson.

 

This offer takes the form of four by one-hour lessons at one lesson per week. Once payment has been confirmed through PayPal Gemma will set up the best time for lessons according to various time zones around the world. Consultation regarding the specifics of what the student would like to study will take place before the first lesson so that time will not be wasted during the first hour. Each lesson will be specifically tailored to the student’s skill level and to what they would like to achieve. Lessons are offered via Zoom and an invitation to join the session will be sent ahead of time. If you are not familiar with Zoom, Gemma is, so she will help you every step of the way.

 

The cost is $400 AUD per four hours. Please email Gemma to discuss your needs.

Calligraphy italia





I have finally jumped on the wagon and run a wonderful zoom class through Calligraphy Italia organised by Riccardo Ali.  By all accounts the folk enjoyed themselves as I did and here are my in-class demonstration pieces. The first class was the European Series Adolf Bernd and the second class Art Deco pen & pencil Lettering.  Enjoy!
