Hello everyone! This is my first post here and I'm a bit nervous, but it's the only place I can think of to ask.
First of all, I've been in love with modern calligraphy for quite awhile now. I started with fake calligraphy and now have finally moved on to the real thing. My fingers are stained with ink at this very moment lol Sadly, I don't have anything too impressive to share yet
but I do have a couple questions. If anyone could help me I'd really appreciate it!
The first thing I'm having trouble with is not using my wrists. Does anyone have any tips for using your whole arm and keeping the wrist still?
The second thing I really need help with is adding bounce to letters. One of the first things I fell in love with in modern calligraphy is the "uneven" letters in the words. I keep trying to bounce the letters on/off the baseline, but it never turns out right. I would really appreciate some tips for that as well.
Thank you for any help in advance! And I can't tell you how glad I am that this place exists.
