In this video, I will show you how to write the entire lowercase alphabet in calligraphy using a brush pen. Creating a calligraphy alphabet may seem daunting at first, but the technique I demonstrate in this video makes the whole process so much easier. I created this calligraphy alphabet using a brush pen, but you can also work with a dip pen with a pointed nib or even a pencil. This tutorial is suited for calligraphy beginners but also for those looking for tips on how to improve or sharpen up their fundamentals.

I also wrote an article if you prefer to read it https://www.letteringdaily.com/brush...
