There’s something really meditative about calligraphy. For me, focusing on how the ink flows out of the nib onto the paper, treating the nib as the extension of my fingers, seeing how my script changes with each tiny movement - it gets so easy for me to forget the world around me and just relax. That’s the reason why I got into calligraphy in 2016. I was looking for a hobby to de-stress from a toxic work environment and the pointed pen had been, and still is, the perfect escape for me.
If you’re looking for a relaxing hobby, I can teach you Engrosser’s Script one stroke at a time. My method of teaching is very detail oriented with a focus on the foundations. In the process of executing the strokes, I will encourage you, your hands, and your mind to be free of self-doubt and judgment. We will examine together how calligraphy may differ person to person as no two hands are the same. We will explore the different nuances, guiding you to find your own style on the page. You can never do it wrong when you are only being yourself while you are writing with your pen.
