Unsure about how to add flourishing to your calligraphy practice? I was too.
It's can be intimidating! It can also look old-fashioned or stuffy.
Over my past 11+ years of professional work as a modern calligrapher, I've grown comfortable with flourishing, both technically as well as stylistically.
Modern flourishing can be clean, elegant and beautiful.
Practicing flourishes will benefit your calligraphy overall.

In this 40 minute course, I cover:

 

• What does it mean to flourish for modern calligraphy vs traditional?


• Exercises and drills to steady your hand


• Shapes and strokes that you can build into more complex flourishes


• How to steer clear of messy, crowded flourishing and create beautiful designs


• Projects and ideas to help you practice

 

Shed your expectations of traditional calligraphy and find your way to a style that fits the way you write.
