Hello from India

[Garima]

Hi Everyone

I am Garima and i'm a beginner to this wonderful world of fine lettering. I was introduced to calligraphy about an year back and since then i've been wanting to learn pointed pen calligraphy. All thanks to the wonderful people in the instagram community, i got practising this january.

I've been seeing people exchanging snail mails and thought it was an uber cool way to practice. I hope to be doing that soon!

I hope to soak in all the knowledge and experiences shared here and hopefully become a better calligrapher

Yes! Your practice sheets look lovely. We seem to have a decent number of us from India, maybe time to have an Indian letter  exchange.
