Me too! When my parents were teaching in Lahore some years ago, we visited and picked up some loose sheets of calligraphy from the visiting brass wallah. Most is probably 19th-century, but a few pages definitely looked older. I would love to learn more about the different styles. Kufic script has fascinated me ever since.

And I'd love to see some Korean calligraphy. I'm much more familiar with Chinese and Japanese, so another hole in my broad but shallow knowledge I look forward to filling.

Salman Khattak:
Thank you @AndyT & @AAAndrew - I will put up some examples as soon we have a place for it :-)

Yes, I would like to show some Korean Calligraphy when we have a category for it ;D

Pretty excited to see your Arabic broad pen work Salman. A video or two would be like topping on the cake :D

@Myles Ink Calligraphy  - I am so sorry I didn't see this earlier! What a great suggestion. I have created the board and you can find it here: Eastern Calligraphy. I'm looking forward to seeing the shares!  :)
