The Complete Book of Calligraphy & Lettering A comprehensive guide to more than 100 traditional calligraphy and hand-writing techniques by Cari Ferraro, Eugene Metcalf, Arthur Newhall, John Stevens

I confess: I picked up The Complete Book of Calligraphy & Lettering A

comprehensive guide to more than 100 traditional calligraphy and hand-writing techniques by Cari Ferraro, Eugene Metcalf, Arthur Newhall, John Stevens for a review because I am a letter-writer, but my handwriting is horrible :-)

This book will teach you everything you want to know for better your handwriting. It starts by pens, pencils and material that we use for writing that sometimes as we will learn, can makes the difference.

This book then focuses on various styles, and each letter appears as "animated" to you and ready to be discovered in all its potentialities.

If you are an enthusiastic calligrapher, this book is for you!

Highly recommended.

I thank NetGalley and Quarto for the ebook.
