"You Can Do Calligraphy!"


Jim Bennett (Bennecelli)
Artist, Calligrapher, Teacher

This book contains everything in my original course plus much, much more! 
It has 20 chapters and 314 pages. It covers all the calligraphy supplies you'll need, how to set up your calligraphy board, and the following alphabets: Italic, Blackletter, Roman, Bookhand, Uncial, Copperplate, and illuminated capitals. It has instruction on the most popular projects: quotations, posters, signs, certificates, and even a special sections on wedding calligraphy, ten more fun alphabets, and how to start your own calligraphy business. It's the only book I know of that contains all this information in one book.
