Digital Hand Lettering and Modern Calligraphy*
Amazing Book on Hand Lettering in the Modern Age
What a visually stunning book! I have done the standard style of calligraphy since I was a teenager (and I am more than double that age now!), so I have an appreciation for hand lettering and calligraphy. The book is not only beautiful to look at, but it is the perfect primer for someone who really wants to get into this. The book is structured into four sections. The first talks about the basics, including tools and strokes. The second section is about taking your hand lettering digital, and the third specifically talks about working with hand lettering on the iPad. Finally, the book ends with a series of projects. It is lavishly Illustrated with full-color photos of the tools, the hand lettering/calligraphy, and the steps to the projects. If you have any interest in this topic, I highly recommend you pick it up. I would certainly recommend the paperback version; it and the eBook are close in price anyway, so you might as well get the full appreciation of what it all looks like in a physical book. If you read and follow along, it will set you up to be a good hand letterer—both by hand and in print.
