Learn Calligraphy! Intro to Copperplate #1
I’ve starting my weekly ‘Intro to Copperplate’ workshops on Twitch!
(Live calligraphy stream begins at 3:30pm EST on Thursdays - www.twitch.tv/neilsonletters )
On the docket for this video:
Going over the tools
Going over my favourite warm-up exercises
-Detailing the 8 basic strokes (these make up all your minuscule letters!)
If you have the tools already and want to do some practice while I go through the workshop, come on by!
If you don’t have the tools, but have paper, a pencil, and a ruler, you’re also PERFECT. I’ll be going through “pencil-igraphy “ for all of the above points too.
(I use a pencil ALL OF THE TIME in my work. It’s such a valuable tool, and is a lot less messy than ink if you’re working on a nice grey couch 😉😂)
Ps if you don’t have a Twitch account and want to watch these videos live, no worries! You can just click and watch. No need to sign in to see what I’m doing.
Have an excellent day!
