Calligraphy has had a massive comeback in the last decade. When I first began my personal calligraphy journey in 2009, I couldn’t find a calligraphy class to save my life. I figured it out on my own, trial and error style.
These days it’s hard to ignore calligraphy in the world around us. It has been integrated into weddings, top to bottom, but also in logos, menu design, home decor, pillows, mugs, etc. (Home Goods, I’m looking at you for those last few).
The calligraphy we see ubiquitously throughout our world generally falls into to major categories (no, I’m not being technical here): modern and traditional. There are a whole handful of styles out there, but we’re talking about Copperplate here formed with a pointed pen and dip ink.
