If you could attend any medieval art workshop, what style/period would you most want to do?

For example, Romanesque illuminated lettering

Would you be interested in attending a Romanesque illuminated lettering workshop (online)?

Hi everyone! A few days ago, I asked if anyone would be interested in a Romanesque illuminated lettering workshop, and the response was amazing! I really wanted to participate myself, so I decided to organize this as a student-led event, and I went ahead and found a highly qualified teacher to lead the workshop.

This is a one-time event with only 10 spots available to keep the experience personal and interactive.

Here’s a quick overview of what you can expect: • Instructor: Lucy, an expert with a Master’s degree in Traditional Arts from the Prince’s Foundation School in London, specializing in traditional techniques with hand-made pigments and 24-carat gold leaf. • Format: Online (either one full-day session or spread out over three weeks based on group preference) • Workshop Price: Early bird price of $70 for those who sign up now! • Materials: Estimated cost $50–$130, with three suggested options based on your budget.

To register your interest, please fill out this Google Form: https://forms.gle/b7qnZaHdER56VX5g7

Would you be interested in taking a medieval illumination workshop? London, UK (or nearby)

Unfortunately, most of the illustrators only do private events. I figured if we get 8-10 people, it can be affordable.
