Another idea: practice the basic strokes and letter formation with a regular (not brush) pen! Part of great lettering is muscle memory, this can be done anywhere with any pen. I really saw progress when I began practicing making consistent ovals and upstrokes at the end of each letter
Yes!! Thanks for sharing! This is such a great point! It can definitely help to get your hands used to the motion before introducing a brush pen to get the hang of. Thanks for being here!
I practice everyday! When I first started my lettering looked like chicken scratch. It’s improved considerably. I belong to a daily lettering challenge group. Thanks for the video!
Yes! Being part of a group is so helpful in being motivated to practice! Thanks for sharing that you were able to see your progress from daily practice! And thanks for being here!
Yes!!! This video is everything!!! When I first started lettering I made it a priority to learn and that’s how I was able to do it! I’m sharing this video!! Lately I haven’t been as active on lettering but I started making TH-cam videos so that’s taking priority at the moment, but I still practice when I can!!
@@Ana-xp9hs no offense but you make it sound snarky. Like that English teacher I had who used to give me bad grades for writing with my left until I complained about it to the school board. And they switched classes on me.
@@mayrahernandezgarcia1677 I've tried that but you see Im very particular when it comes to paper. I hate smudges, rips or tears it makes me want to start over on something. And when I would tilt it my papers would get messed up and that would make me upset/stressed. Frankly I have no idea why I obessed on it but it makes my art/skteching stressful sometimes. In a way ig I'm a perfectionist ?
I think I do all of these! I keep pens and a small notebook with me for practice on the go, do fauxligraphy with pencil on the go as well for letter form practice, keep supplies by the couch with worksheets, and have my favorite pens at the ready! Having a clipboard ready with paper, a ruler, eraser, and pencil inspires me to start or continue with whatever project I’m working on.
Good video and good ideas, especially the last one "to plan your practice". I need to work on that, Planning challenges for myself or using someone else's challenges is something that I think I will find helpful. Thank you for your ideas.
I'm so glad you found this helpful! Challenges are a great way to stick with daily practice. And it's also a great way to find a community of likeminded people on Instagram! :)
ive always had enough money for a lot of tombow brushes because I've saved up enough every year, but my mom has a rule where i can't get pens over 5 dollars each :( so I've gotten the cheap brush pens, the ones where they fray easily
Hi. Random question. I am not a beginner nor pro in calligraphy. I am planning to buy a brushpen. I just wanted to ask which is better, Koi brushpen or Karin brushpen? Also does karin brushpen fray easily when you write on water color paper?
I have bought some brush pens but they donot work good..at first their nib was working great but now it's not and the nib is not perfect either because of which I can't do lettering so what should I do?and why has it happened?Am I pushing it too hard or..?😕😕
I would suggest Faux Calligraphy! You can do it with any fineliner pen. I have a faux calligraphy basics tutorial video you can find here: th-cam.com/video/ZvsDh8-CJB0/w-d-xo.html

Any tips for lefties on keep control and not slanting the writing up or down?
Your also a Leftie!!! COOL!!!!!!!
Practice on your right??Well I dont know Im a rightie
@@Ana-xp9hs no offense but you make it sound snarky. Like that English teacher I had who used to give me bad grades for writing with my left until I complained about it to the school board. And they switched classes on me.
Well what I do is put the paper slant on its slide and then write. I am too a leftie.

I do the same too! I have the pilot mini brush pen petit3 and it fits my pocket and I can go anywhere and practice calligraphy with it.
thanks sarah!
The quick brown fox jumps in the lazy dog... There ya gooooo

Practice makes progress as always. Thank you for the reminder😊😊
Yes it does! Thank you for watching! :)
A ballpen will do if you want to learn to calligraphy or handwriting! But if you can afford you favorite brushpen then you could also use it
This is really useful
Your hand lettering is PRISTINE! I have a ways to go still 😊
You’ll get where you want to be! It just takes practice! 👍
I'm getting the tombow dual brush pens on my 10th birthday, and when I went to Michaels and tested them, I was already good at it! (^^)
Uno Dos yeah sure.
I fell a sleep because of her calming voice
I love your writing
Wow ur writing is so pretty
What do you call the font/style of the words “HOW TO PRACTICE”? Cause I really really wanna do thatt
Shay sans serif

ive always had enough money for a lot of tombow brushes because I've saved up enough every year, but my mom has a rule where i can't get pens over 5 dollars each :( so I've gotten the cheap brush pens, the ones where they fray easily
Tell your mom that spending a little more and getting quality pens will help them last longer and therefore save more. It's called an investment
Whenever I letter I concentrated so much on making it look good I spell the word completely wrong. Help me
Love you btw
Haha I don’t have a solution for this because I do it all the time!! It does help to sketch it out first! Thanks for watching!
Why is this frikin me
I like to sketch first, hand lettering is "drawing letters" rather than "writing" 👍
I love your markers! Where did you bought them
Normally amazon! I linked them in the description box 👍
It looks simple when you write it but when ur done I wonder:
*how how how how how how*
Hi. Random question. I am not a beginner nor pro in calligraphy. I am planning to buy a brushpen. I just wanted to ask which is better, Koi brushpen or Karin brushpen? Also does karin brushpen fray easily when you write on water color paper?
at 1:50 can you give us a reference sheet? 😭
What kind of reference sheet are you looking for?
Which brush pen is good to use
@Ensight Insight please were did you get those brush tip pens please give a link!
I shared the link in the description box 😊
I’m really confused why anyone would dislike the vid
The more likes there are, the more dislikes there are. So weird! Thank you for watching!
I have bought some brush pens but they donot work good..at first their nib was working great but now it's not and the nib is not perfect either because of which I can't do lettering so what should I do?and why has it happened?Am I pushing it too hard or..?😕😕
What kind of pen is the one you are using at 1:45?
Is this like a thin brush pen or something else?
Thanks but can u make a video of how to use brush pens??
You're in luck! I have a video exactly about that: th-cam.com/video/wpztopO1DUg/w-d-xo.html
How much does those Karin brush markers cost?
What is the brand of your calligraphy pens??
I’m using Karin Markers here!
I actually tried calligraphy like... Nighttime and 'twas easy...
(for pen only) the faux calligraphy... But Im still learing
Do we need to use a brush pen so the writing will be good?
Nope! You can use any pen depending on the style you’re going for 😊
@@EnsignInsights I like the effects of brush pens so I have some!
what should I use if I only have a chisel and duel tip but no brush tip
I would suggest Faux Calligraphy! You can do it with any fineliner pen. I have a faux calligraphy basics tutorial video you can find here: th-cam.com/video/ZvsDh8-CJB0/w-d-xo.html
Hi I’m curious to find out if the markers you used are refillable 😊
Great question! These Karin Markers are not refillable. Thanks for watching!
I see, that’s such a pity! I saw that the markers are quite expensive, thought they are refillable or something 😅
🍎
What pen are you using on 8:05 ? Thanks
0:04 me: I see the lines underneath.... I know your secrets -_-
*keeps watching video* me: so smart
Yes! I always recommend starting with a pencil! Thanks for watching 😊
Can i please know what pen you are using?
I used Karin markers here! They’re linked in the description 😊
early yay
What brush pen were you using in this videos?
These are Karin markers. They’re linked in the description 😊
2:03 HOW DO YOU CALL THAT I WANT TO LEARN THAT TOOoOoOooOoooO
The reason why I kinda stop practice lettering is because I made my brushpens fray very fast :(
What about how to learn hand lettering without an special brush, marker, or pen
You should try faux calligraphy! Here’s a tutorial I did about it: th-cam.com/video/ZvsDh8-CJB0/w-d-xo.html
Ensign Insights oh thank you!!!
Hi i learn how to write caligraphy faster i just try it and then my friend side waw because she's surprise that i learn how to write caligraphy faster she side "it take me month's to learn how to write it"

In how many days you learned to use brush pens ??? 😁😁😁
What brush pens are suitable for lettring
Super vidéo thanks very much but the markers is so expensive😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
They are expensive! You have to find the right brush pens that work with your budget. 👍
how with no color
I can't write s. Its difficult
I start a word "hey"
OoOh
Welp,I easily practice lettering because every time we go,my fingers automatically go swirly lettering lols
I'm too broke to own this art supplies.
step 01 : have a nice penmanship
I can definitely relate on having better cursive than normal handwriting..
*How to make a DIY Lettering brush because you're broke*
Btw, it is "How to practiSe"
This is why I have no friends...
Hermione Lovegood I don’t know where you live but I live in the US and it’s correctly spelled “practice” here. :)
i know calligraphy really well but I am just not famous (it's true,you may not believe me,my age is 10)
*practise* not practice for the title
Well where I live here, we say it "practice", so both work ig? 🤷
Practice is correct in the USA where I live. I think practise must be the British English
Right , in most countries of the world , practice is a noun and practise is a verb. America is different.
