Hi there! :wave: :wave:

I recently posted a video on how I practice calligraphy, and in this post I'll also share how I practice!

1. Up/down strokes

First off I do some up and down strokes to warm up my hand, and make sure I'm being light on the upstroke, and heavy on the downstroke.

*Note: The weight depends on what brush pen you use, so if you're going to make a poster, warm up your hand with the brush pen you're using first.

2. Up-down and down-up

Then I put the up/down strokes together to practice the transitions. This can help if you have a hard time when writing letters.

3. Alphabet

After warming up, I write the alphabet. There are many different ways to write all the letters in calligraphy, so just write them however you want.

So that's my calligraphy practice routine!

Make sure you check out my Youtube and Instagram!

Thanks for reading! :wave: :wave:

It is challenging at the beginning, like everything, but the pens that I use (Pigma Micron and Faber Castell) don't smear so They work great for left handers.
