“The Flourish seminar was of great value for the number of sessions Robert has compiled together. We were provided with detailed workbooks for each session in addition to a master workbook for flourishing. This is a great combination of classes and there is something for everyone. Robert’s teaching style is very detailed and he took his time to resolve each of our queries during sessions. The feedback provided on homework was elaborated which is what I needed exactly to understand where to improve. I would definitely recommend this class for anyone who wants to seriously study flourishing to increase their knowledge or just for fun.” Apoorva Wright, Calligrapher

“Taking Robert’s “The Flourish Seminar” was the best decision. I was not new to flourishes still I found so many new things in this class. Robert’s way to look at flourishes is really unique. After studying with many other calligraphy instructors, he’s my top favourite. Initially I attended his one day workshop on Flourishes in Feb, 2022 and that was itself so enlightening that I couldn’t resist taking this 8 week long seminar. This course helped me to realise that there are endless ways to flourish and it never gets boring.

What makes Robert’s course worth purchasing? So many topics were covered like classic Flourishes, acanthus leaves, how to flourish block letters (it’s going to help me a lot to design monograms), Flourishing compositions as well. I’ve studied so many calligraphers’ Flourishing style and Robert’s stand out as most unique and beautiful and it just fits my preference. And the main thing is it doesn’t matter if you are into modern calligraphy, Brushpen calligraphy, copperplate or lettering, you can join this course and you will easily apply those flourishes to your preferred style.

I recommend every flourishing enthusiastic to take this course and here is why? He is open minded, instructions are really really easy to understand. Worksheets given before every class helped me a lot to understand every topic properly. Robert provides feedback as well after every class which is again really helpful to correct mistakes. Someone who is serious about taking their calligraphy/lettering skills to the next level, make the right investment by taking this course” Mohita – starastronaut calligraphy

“Robert Bree’s Flourish Seminar is excellent, and I highly recommend it.

“The opportunity to meet Robert, absorb his knowledge, watch him draw, get feedback from him and connect with like-minded classmates, is something I can’t recommend enough. His impact on my work is clear as day and I’m thankful for that.” Daniel Ribeiro – Lettering, Calligraphy and Design

“I thoroughly enjoyed learning how to flourish with Robert, the skills I learnt during our workshop has increased my confidence in my ability to now flourish my calligraphy to a standard I am happy with.” Lindsey Gribble – Calligrapher

“I can only recommend the Flourish Workshop to all flourish lovers! Robert has a lot of tips and tricks and the course was very eye-opening. For all those who love to flourish, take a course with Robert!” Gloria Wolf – Lettering Artist

“Why do his flourishes always look perfect? This question persisted and I booked the advanced course with Robert. His deep knowledge already impressed me during my brushlettering beginners course in 2018 and it was almost clear that the script and the workshop were full of well-prepared knowledge. I can only advise every beginner to start with a workshop before starting their creative work – you simply save yourself a huge amount of frustration and the exercises are goal-oriented and good results are quickly visible”.
