Fascinating Floral Rinceau Study Day

Saturday November 16th, 2024 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM ET

A very special study day opportunity is on the way for you! This time, we will take a deep dive into the fascinating world of floral rinceau designs. Rinceau is a deceptively complex looking style of ornament that graces many illuminated manuscripts. Using an extractive study method, we will learn how to create these brilliant borders that glisten with gold. Study days are designed as work along opportunities for the student with minimized distractions. We will be designing and painting  these mini masterpieces together.  All skill levels are welcome. A lunch break will be provided during the session and enrollment will be kept small to encourage the study atmosphere. A recording of the class will be available for 6 months after the class and will be hosted on my private YouTube Channel. A complete supply list, Padlet link and Zoom link will be sent to each student after registration has been processed.  The cost of the study day experience is $80 US. Please allow 2-3 days to process your registration. Email questions to: heather@heathervictoriaheld.com. I am so excited to spend the day with you as we learn this incredible illumination technique.
