EVERYDAY
A normal fountain pen is not a flexible calligraphy nib. Aim for a light touch and a comfortable angle rather than pressing for thick strokes. Begin with slow lines and small ovals. Pause if the pen feels scratchy or your hand tightens.
Try thisFill three short rows with light lines, ovals and loops. Notice where your grip becomes tense.
ITALIC
Italic calligraphy uses a broad edge to create contrast through direction. Keep the nib angle consistent as you move. Do not add pressure to imitate a flexible nib. Start with short strokes and compare the result before moving to letters.
Try thisMake a row of short strokes with a broad-edge fountain pen. Compare their width and your pen angle.
COMPOSITION
Plan a short message in pencil on scrap paper before writing the final version. Give the main line space to breathe. Keep supporting words smaller and leave clear margins. A restrained layout can make ordinary handwriting feel considered.
Try thisLay out a five-word message three ways: centred, left aligned and with a small heading.
