  • Are you learning to letter but don't feel like you're improving? These basic hand lettering rules will help you improve your hand lettering fonts. Sometimes you just need more time practicing the right things. I've been lettering for several years and still feel like I'm learning new things all the time so it does take patience. But practicing the right things, especially when it comes to lettering basics, can really help you improve quickly. #brushlettering #handlettering

      Hi. Good point you see yourself that way, I do that too (not in hand lettering particularly), but please keep practicing no matter what. You make a piece of art with your own style (regarding the rules of course), just enjoy the process. Btw I am quite a newbie in handlettering with brush pens, but I have been taking up traditional calligraphy course using copperplate and parallel pens before I jumped up on brush pen calligraphy. Best of luck for you and all calligraphy folks 😻

      @@EnsignInsights They are SO worth the wait! I love their super fine side more than the fine side on the chiseled highlighter ones too, so these brush pens are just all-around amazing! I hope things start to settle down too though, life is hectic! 💗

    You know my story :
    I started lettering or calligraphy when I saw it on Google and then I tried and practice and then I tried to copy it and finally I did it with a cheap faber castle black marker becuz I was not having equipment for the first time doing the calligraphy so then I tried to do it again and again and I got perfect with a marker and thats thesame way I learned to draw, sketch and beautiful hand writing and lettering or calligraphy.
    Thank you please like

    I think the number 1 rule isn't really a rule because you could try doing your letters inconsistent. There's no right or wrong for that. It's only based on how you want your letters to be.
