I hope to one day do work like this for a living.. along with watercolor cards... think those two make a good combo.

    People don’t know how HARD it is to write calligraphy that slow and steady. When I do calligraphy, I have to do it fast so the line aren’t squiggly. This lady is so skilled and talented to be able to write like that, not to mention her font is sooo elegant!!😍

    • @JonHop1
      @JonHop1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      It came completely naturally to me.. I thought it was so easy and a lot of people thought I was crazy or some savant at calligraphy, but I think my background in Graffiti and art just allowed me to have a really steady hand, but also a great understand of letters and feel for how to use the ink/paint.. Spray paint is in some ways similar to Calligraphy. With the angling of the can and the spray and the quick changes in pacing and movements to achieve a thinner or thicker line.

    Lovely, Suzanne! No sooner had I seen “Com” in the address line, I knew it would be Commonwealth Avenue in Boston. I live in a suburb of Boston and have traveled on “Comm-Av” many times. BTW...your script is beautiful. Mine is not nearly as precise due to neuropathy in my fingers nowadays. Yet I was blessed to have been taught “Spencerian Script” over 50 years ago by the late George Hilliard, a gentleman who had worked in a bank his entire adult life and did all the ledger entries using this script. Can you imagine what that must have been like? What Mr. Hilliard taught me was essentially what you’ve demonstrated in this video, but with a little less flourish.

    I have my grandmothers yearbook and it was from 1922 and everyone that signed her book has beautiful handwriting- they really cared about every time they wrote back then- so special.

      After 1 year later, nobody answered this perfectly fine question!
      So I answer this question.
      Salutations Shawna Graham! I am Albert! You may call me Geronimo, as it's a form of respect in our home.
      And the answer is..Yes! They do!
      Calligraphers do this type of thing to create the perfect font for the perfect envelope! As it's a form of respect to the person who's demanding a letter!
      De Salutations! (De Salutations is a form of goodbye)

      @@beiiance Thank you Geronimo for your response. It seems the further ahead in time we move the less elegant, respectful, caring we become. It’s like we’re regressing as a species. I’m ranting so sorry. Again thank you for your response.

    The best standards of calligraphy and cursive writing is doing it in a tangible way, where the remains are certainly readable and full of style. This is genuine. It is readable and intricately designed as the flows of the waters in a mountain.
