Book Synopsis Learn Calligraphy by : Margaret Shepherd
Download or read book Learn Calligraphy written by Margaret Shepherd and published by Watson-Guptill. This book was released on 2013-08-21 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an age of myriad computer fonts and instant communication, your handwriting style is increasingly a very personal creation. In this book, Margaret Shepherd, America's premier calligrapher, shows you that calligraphy is not simply a craft you can learn, but an elegant art form that you can make your own. Calligraphy remains perennially popular, often adorning wedding invitations, diplomas, and commercial signs. Whether it is Roman, Gothic, Celtic, Bookhand, or Italic style, calligraphy conveys class and elegance. Margaret Shepherd makes this ancient art form accessible in a completely hand-lettered technical guide that will: * Provide context for calligraphy as an art, exploring the rich tradition of hand-lettering and mapping the evolution of the most popular styles. * Give detailed technical advice on choosing pens, paper, and inks, setting up your workspace, mastering various pen angles, along with step-by-step illustrations to guide you as you practice. * Explain which alphabets are appropriate for different forms of writing. For example, the Roman alphabet works well for short, unpunctuated passages, while the Italic alphabet is more suited to informal everyday communication. * Encourage you to personalize your lettering by using variant strokes and interpreting how you would like the words to look on the page. * Inspire you with carefully chosen illustrations and examples, which bring letters to life. In Margaret Shepherd's own words, "Calligraphy trains not only your eye and hand, but your mind as well." Learn Calligraphy is the authoritative primer for this age-old craft, and will help develop a new appreciation for lettering as you discover your creative personality.

Download or read book Cadels written by Vivian Mungall and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This calligraphy book takes the reader through step by step instructions to learn how to letter Cadels. A cadel is a letter composed of a series of tape-like strokes, which are nearly parallel, and are interwoven and knotted together to produce a complete letter. These capital letters were used as a single initial letter (versal) or multiple letters. The oldest known cadel found was in the illuminated prayer book, the Tres Riches Heures de Duc de Berry made by the Limboug Brothers. In 1409, Jean Flamel, the Duc's Secretary, inscribed the title page of the book with cadels. He incorporated the cadels into the letter's stems, producing an overall texture to the whole page. Since there is no standard exemplar for this lettering style, this book covers many ways a calligrapher can create these beautiful capitals by either following the historical version or creating their own style.
