Calligraphy & Lettering

Calligraphy and Lettering
Practicing to improve, always
You can see bellow some of my calligraphy and lettering studies, all made by hand. I believe that It's need master the hand process to reach great results at computer, so I'm practicing!
This blackletter workister bellow I made with a Pillot Parallel, inspired at Luca Barcellona work, seeing this so inspiring video to learn calligraphy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQ5UPGnyjZ4&list=UUIQkjjHrXVerP9BqbByx7pQ&index=5&feature=plcp
And below, you can see other calligraphy's studies. Sometimes I do something at work, between a job and another. Other times I do at home, often on weekends. Practicing calligraphy is a therapy to me.
