Not having the skills to draw, I used the month as a chance to practice Copperplate writing.

Yay, a new old hand. |
I used Eleanor Winter's
Mastering Copperplate Calligraphy, working on one letter per day (the other five went for fundamental strokes, and conecting the miniscules). I still have a lot of work to do on this hand, but it's off to a fun start.
Favorite letters: F, T, X, V, f, s, s (long), p, w (old style), z.
Least Favorite: M, Q, the round forms of B, P, R.
Your have lovely penmanship!
ReplyDeleteThank you. The camera distance certainly flatters it compared to a close examination.
