Calligraphy By The Numbers,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Ken Brown Calligraphy Handbook (Paperback)
Ken Brown does a first class job of breaking down the elements of several alphabets. It makes progress in learning the letters of each hand easy and logical. Mr. Hunt has translated his obvious skill at calligraphy into a tidy series of lessons both teachers and practitioners will find useful. A bonus is that individuals interested in learning medieval hands will particularly appreciate his step-by-step approach.
