blog 03 (hand lettering)

one of my works!

Hello! What’s going on? All in full swing? Hope it is!

Enough of that usual introduction…let’s straight away get to the point. So as we all are aware, tomorrow is Easter what are your guys’ plans? Shh…don't tell this to my mom, I am going to eat all the candy at my home :D

I have heartbreaking news to tell, no no wait I don’t have coronavirus but, this is going to be my last blog :(

Haha, hope I got you really well on that one, though April fool is gone. Lol. Tell me, if I did or not in the comment section down below.

As you all know, in my last blog I talked about calligraphy, why don’t we just continue that as I see you all really loved my last blog which was just an introduction to it now we are going really into the subject. Hand-lettering/calligraphy is really useful. You can use it in various things like making cards, bookmarks, writing names on your books, etc.

I can’t share much on calligraphy as I am just a beginner but you know every person has a first time. If your words don’t look good or are messy it’s ok because we both are learning.  Calligraphy has many stages to achieve to become a professional. I am currently trying to master the first one called “faux calligraphy” the word faux derives from ‘fake’. In this mode of calligraphy, one shall use normal gel and ball point pens to highlight the lower strokes. Firstly, write the word/ sentence/ quote in cursive and highlight the lower strokes. We don’t need to know more at this stage and are good to go!!

Hmm…so I guess that was a bit of a heavy dose for the day, that might be too much to handle in one go. Why don’t you guys start sharing your experiences, reading my blog? Can we all please use the comment section and share our views?

So, for now let me say goodbye! I, Isha am officially signing off for this blog. Have a good day!
