    Since I'm taking a Calligraphry class this semester I thought I'd share some of what I have done so far. I will be seperating the sketches into the weeks that I did them.

    More Info: The type of Calligraphy I'm doing is Italic Calligraphy. Since I'm left handed I write on a 45* Degree angle which helps show the thinness or thickness of my letters.

    Materials: I'm using a Parallel Pen, Sketch book, practice sketch book (the ones with lines) and a dip pen.

    Week 1
    [​IMG] These are the basic strokes that we do to get familiar with our pen.

    [​IMG] Here are some basic letters.

    Week 2:
    I start putting letters together to make words.

    I work with more Words and I make some Italic Capitals

    Very nice! It's cool to see something like this because not many people practice or write Calligraphy nowadays (that I'm aware of). I wish you the best of luck and I look forward to seeing at the end how far you've come. Good luck!
