Korshub's take

Starting brush pen calligraphy on the right foot

If your calligraphy hasn't looked quite right despite copying styles you've seen online, this course opens by naming the key misconception that's likely holding you back, a first step the course treats as essential before anything else. From there, it builds a genuine foundation rather than jumping straight to full alphabets.

How the course is structured

Basic strokes first, as the building blocks for every letter
Letters practiced in groups rather than in sequence, so common strokes get reinforced faster
Four different ways to link letters together and start developing your own style
A final DIY project that pulls together everything covered

Who it's for

Aimed squarely at someone completely new to calligraphy, the course states plainly that a heart for practice and some patience are the only real prerequisites. By the end, you'll have the grounding to create the lettering you've seen in journals, cards, and hand-lettered art.

About this course

Want to get started on learning brush pen calligraphy?

Perhaps you have been copying calligraphy styles you see on social media but they somehow don't look "right"? It could just be that you are still carrying one key misconception that needs to be debunked right now. That alone has prevented you from progressing, no matter how much you practice and re-watch clips on calligraphy. This course will begin with that to start you off on the right foot!

The course will also put you on a firm foundation for starting your calligraphy journey by emphasizing the basic strokes, then building up on that to form letters. Instead of learning letters in sequence, this course will also cover a much more effective way to letter the 26 alphabets.

Then, infuse your own style by finding ways to link letters together (this course covers FOUR ways). We wrap up the course by applying all the newly acquired skills through a DIY project.

This is THE course to start with, and you will be well on your way to create those beautiful calligraphy you see in journals, letters, cards and so on.
