Italic Hand Calligraphy: Lowercase Letters : How to Use a Calligraphy Pen

[rrostie]

Who taught you how to do calligraphy? I really think you use your wrist and fingers too much, which is a bad habit from learning how to write in elementary school.

Can you write with a quill pen on regular notebook paper, to write letters to people? Or does it have to be on like parchment or a special kind of paper?

is beatifull but where find that pen ?

[foster21]

Two questions about the pen. 1, which side is facing forward, because the nib (i think that's the name) has a concave and convex side? 2, How much pressure should you need to put on the paper? Is it similar to a ball-point?

[starblaze808]

I know it's late and all but you don't have to put much pressure at all. Hold the pen either 30 degrees - 45 degrees. The concave should be placed on the paper! Then good luck and have fun practicing calligraphy!
