Homework practice for the @chicagocalligraphycollective brush romans workshop with John Stevens. I was really struggling with both form and technique. I feel like I found the rhythm for the brush manipulations on the second day of the workshop last weekend, but I totally lost it yesterday. . . #calligraphy #brushcalligraphy #flatbrush #romancapitals #brushromancapitals #johnstevensworkshop #handletteredabcs #handletteredabcs_2017 #abcs_c #abcs_d

Day 4 of the 2017 handlettered ABCs challenge. I really love D's 😊 the slant on my cap is is a bit low and the bottom got a bit sharp and pinched, but not so bad. . . . #ABCs_D #handletteredABCs #handletteredABCs_2017 #HooksHandletteredABCs #HooksHandletteredABCs_2017 #HooksHolders #calligraphy #calligraphypractice #copperplate #flourish #pointedpen

Letter D for the @handletteredABCs 2018 challenge😊. I'm pretty happy with this one, a few wobbles in the oval of the capital, but pretty clean. If you want to see recordings for each letter of this 'Italian' styled variant of the classic Engrosser's Roundhand script, I'll be posting them all to a playlist on my YouTube too: https://goo.gl/NEmRfQ. • • I'm doing the whole alphabet using one of my hand carved ergonomic nib holders with a leonardt principal ef nib in Higgins eternal ink on lined Rhodia paper. • • Italian is a vague term in this context that was often used by practitioners to denote a script intended to be paired with a more commonly styled one. It rarely indicates one way or the other whether the origin of the script is/was actually Italy. As a consequence there are numerous historical scripts labeled as 'Italian' that seem to have little visual relationship to each other. I went pretty heavy on the shades for fun :D If I were using this script in a piece I'd probably lighten it up a bit unless it was going to be for a big, dramatic title of some sort. • • Music playing while I was writing is from Missing Vwls. • • #HooksHolders #HooksHandLetteredABCs #HooksHandLetteredABCS_2018 #calligraphy #pointedpen #roundhand #engrossersscript #copperplate #Italianscript #Higginseternal #LeonardtPrincipal #Rhodia #MissingVwls #calligraphyvideo #calligraphyinstruction #calligraphyalphabet #lettering #handlettering #typography #letterarchive #handletteredABCs #handletteredABCs_2018 #ABCs_d #letterarchive_d
