Day 8 - Italic Calligraphy


Today I practiced italic with a dip pen and a Speedball C1 nib.
Italic lettering and I go way back. I took a class my senior year in high school. Then I took several classes in college. As far as lettering is concerned, it's my first love.
Since I am going to letter every day this year I must be sure to practice italic. It helps my every day handwriting and besides being relaxing, it sharpens my lettering skills in general.
