Your lettering is beautiful and you instruct very well. I have seen you work in the past at the SOS Holiday Fair. I so appreciate that you are sharing your knowledge and incredible talent in this venue. It is so inspiring and motivating.

You are very welcome. This particular form of script is not handwriting. I am actually drawing the letters. The script evolved when engrossers/calligraphers in the 19th century attempted to emulate the beautiful script of the metal engraver/ Hence the terms Engrosser's or Engraver's script was applied to the hand. My mentor, master penman Bill Lilly one said that Engrosser's script is the equivalent of 'engraving of paper'.

More to come so stay tuned and keep practicing!
