Past Student Reviews:
“Billy is passionate about Hand Lettering. His artistic skill, reference resources and patient hands on instruction are engaging, thoughtful and encouraging.”
“The mysteries of hand lettering were demystified for me. Billy has such a fun, calm, humble and clear way about explaining how to create each letter. His stories are wonderful history lessons and were such a nice addition to learning the mechanics of hand lettering. Not to mention the Tea and Calligraphy on the last day of class!”
