HAND LETTERING > CALLIGRAPHY
Calligraphy is a visual art related to writing. It is the design and execution of lettering with a broad-tipped instrument, brush, or other writing instrument. A contemporary calligraphic practice can be defined as "the art of giving form to signs in an expressive, harmonious, and skillful manner". Like any other craft, it is also a skill that takes quite some practice in the beginning until you get the hang of it but you will need years and years of practice until you are a master at it. The most important thing is that you are “Drawing” Letters and as such, they should be readable and cleanly drawn.
"Calligraphy is the most intimate, personal, spontaneous form of expression. Like a fingerprint or a voice, it is unique for each person"– Hermann Zapf
