3 intensive days of theory and practice of hand lettering hosted by the "not so humble" Pierre Tardif, 25 years veteran sign painter!! Fee is $495.00 including all material for the workshop. Date will be august 26-27-28th 2010 and this will happen in my new shop,15 miles from downtown Quebec city. Anybody interested? Contact me at 418-844-1733 or on my e-mail at pierre@ptardif.com
BTW, you can make this a nice vacation along with your learning experience! My shop is located 15 miles north of dowtown beautiful old Quebec city, founded 1608, one of the nicest and oldest city in north America! Also I am only 4 miles away from one of the biggest water park (www.valcartier.com) We have an hotel in town and many bed & breakfast or you can stay at the famous Chateau Frontenac!
Life is so good!

OK folks, I see many, many posts about wanting to learn hand lettering. Here is your opportunity. You couldn't possibly learn from a better teacher! You'll come away with something that will be with you for life, unlike the latest wizz bang computer gizmo. Get close to Pierre and maybe a little of his passion will rub off.

Oh oh oh - can I scrape together the shekels to do this in time? I will certainly try. It would be a perfect early birthday present to myself.

C'mon Heads, don't let this one pass you by!
Some of you might say: but I don't hand letter, I got a vinylshop.
Reason more, Pierre will be teaching about the history and the "how-to's" and the "don'ts" of lettering in general, so you will surely be doing better stickers after that!
This is a must guys and old Quebec city is truely beautifull!

For anyone who has never met Pierre...He looks "harmless", and he has this buddy named Rene who also seems harmless.
BUT
Beware... though...they are not harmless...they have been known to lead innocent folks astray and get them drunk...
And even worse...wake their victims, the next morning, by playing VERY loud music!!!! VERY early in the morning!!!!
When encountering Pierre and or Rene..Be aware of who you are dealing with. Posted by Pierre Tardif (Member # 3229) on :
Have no idea what Dave is talking about...

You already know how I feel... I'd be there if I could, Mr. Tardif! Totally envious of your lucky students.
