Review

"This is a great starting point" --Good Book Guide (October 2008)

'This comprehensive guide to calligraphy techniques from A&C Black is packed with over 250 photographs, detailed guides for producing the essential calligraphy shapes and strokes for each letter' --Simply cords mag

"For clarity, attention to detail and not being diverted from the avowed purpose of the book, you'd have to give this 12 out of 10." --ArtBookReview.net (31/10/08)

Product Description

This is a complete beginner's guide to learning how to do calligraphy. It starts with a brief history and a discussion of all the materials and equipment that will be needed. It then explores in depth 15 of the most commonly used alphabet styles, with emphasis on developing rhythm in writing by building up experience in similarly formed letter shapes, and practising combining them in repetitive exercises. The final section explores the use of colour and gold to enliven the pages. All in all, this is the ideal guide for anyone wanting to take up calligraphy.
