Greetings from down-under
« on: October 21, 2022, 08:12:25 PM »
Hi everyone,

Greetings from Australia! I'm very glad to be here. I discovered this forum through Erica's interview on 'The Calligraphy Podcast' and The Flourish Forum sounded like a wonderful community of calligraphy lovers.

I started calligraphy in 2019 with foundational hand and stayed with broad edged script, flirting with uncial and settling down with italic and fraktur. This year, I started to learn copperplate as well. Clearly not enough hours in the day!

Looking forward to exchanging ideas and learning from everyone here.

Toks

Hello!

You have made an excellent start by beginning with Foundational. And you were bit by the calligraphy bug I see and are moving on to pointed pen. I agree - not enough hours in the day! Or week, or year!  ;D
