JON CONTINO LETTERING CLASS!!!

Jon Contino Skillshare

Well, this little bit of information just couldn’t wait until Thursday, I was anxious that I couldn’t even wait until Tuesday so I am sending out this smoke signal early, because I don’t know if this class will sell out!  Jon Contino is legendary amongst hand lettering aficionados and to be able to take a $20 class from him?  Well, that is just crazy (good) talk. I just found out from my pal Michelle P. that Mr. Contino will be teaching the on-line class above via Skillshare. I have already enthused about how brilliant I believe Skillshare to be, but the addition of a lettering superstar has taken them over the top in my book. I am a bit bummed that the day class launches I will be hitting the road, but you can take the class and enjoy it immensely for me right?  I am so excited about this development I think I may implode.  I hope some of you do take the course, I can’t wait to see what you create in class!

  1. I signed up a last week! Was so excited to see that email in my inbox…for $20 it’s a steal… (thinking of you as you pack up & set sail once again ;) )

  2. I saw this and jumped on it. Like Kara said, $20 is a freaking STEAL! I’ve been a huge fan of Joe’s work for a while and I’m excited as all get out over this. Thanks for sharing!!!

    1. Hi Tristan!

      I wish this would let me reply to your replies (did I miss how to do this?). And thank you so much! If you’re interested in (kind of) what I already have, here’s my personal art blog under the art tag: http://blog.jaybendt.com/art

      Bummer that you won’t be taking it!!! You can live vicariously through us ;)

    2. You did reply ‘correctly’ ;) Well, definitely let us know when you have samps on your blog, I am going to totally want to see what you have created!

  3. I almost contacted you to let you know about his class. I assumed you would be in the know about it! Thankfully, I signed up for their emails. Surely they will have another one once the dust settles in your new abode. {I plan on being in Portland in June–2.5 hrs away from you ;) }
    k.

  4. Yes indeed we signed up when the email arrived! Also, check out the Map class, I am looking forward to it:
    http://www.skillshare.com/Map-Making-Learn-to-Communicate-Places-Beautifully/1003892661/812423379/classroom/syllabus will be a great asset to my map making for wedding stationery and my life long love of maps.
    Just read about your move…. FANTASTIC! you will need to buy a sea kayak! Can’t wait to hear more about your adventure. Take the “southern” route + stop here in Colorado… LOL

    1. Excellent! I want to take the map class too! You must show off your work Denise! We took the Southern route here so we are going to try the opposite this time so we can see more of our beautiful country and it is beautiful!

  5. Hey Tristan! Just stumbled on your site and wanted to let you know that you still CAN take the class if you want! It starts on May 13, but you can take the class at your convenience. Even if you decide that you would have enough time in September to take the class, it will be archived in a live format so that you can pretty much take the class exactly like everyone else on May 13! I wish there was a more clear way to display that on the Skillshare site, but I wanted to make sure you knew!

    Thanks for the post!
    Jon
