Learn the Timeless Script of Copperplate Calligraphy
The companion book to Copperplate Calligraphy from A to Z by Sarah Richardson, the Copperplate Calligraphy Practice Book will equip you with the resources, practice sheets and guidance you need to learn calligraphy. This book is designed to walk you through the letters and practice prompts incrementally, resulting in consistent progress over time. You won’t just write the letters and practice the strokes– you will experience the script up close, learn to examine your own work and train your eye to see letters with a fresh and informed perspective. By sticking with it week-after-week, page-after-page, the letterforms and strokes will become ingrained in your mind, in turn allowing your hand to execute the letters with ease.
As you work through the book, you will get hands-on practice with the basic strokes, minuscule and majuscule (or, lowercase and uppercase) alphabets and numbers in the Copperplate style. You’ll become familiar with the tools of the trade, experiment with different types of ink and nibs and learn terminology that will help you progress and feel confident in Copperplate calligraphy.
