Not perfect, just something beautiful. ✨ . You bring your own beautiful style and creativity along with you that nobody else has. You are YOU! So create something beautiful with all of your imperfections, talents, favorite colors, and kindness. What you have to offer is needed! . Don’t compare yourself to anybody else- just create something that represents you! Comparison will steal all your joy- so keep your eyes on your own work and keep practicing. Look at all the progress that you’ve made so far and be proud of yourself. 💗 . You are doing a great job AND you can create something beautiful. 💛 PS. visit my stories to see the process of lettering this one! 🤗

What letter should I do next? 🗒✍🏻 . My number one priority in my lettering is legibility. You can add more swirls and flairs if you want some fancier J’s, but I’m more of a keep it simple kinda girl. I want to make sure that what you can read what I’m writing. . If you’re trying to find your style or you’re stuck on a letter, I highly recommend trying this exercise. Pick a letter, write it 12 different ways, & circle your favorites. Repeat with each letter of the alphabet and see if you find any trends in what you like! . If you try this exercise, be sure to snap a pic & post it with the hashtag #LTBeginners 💗

Which one is your favorite: Artline, Zig, or Crayola. ✨ . I recommend all three of these pens for beginners. They all have medium sized brush tips - Artline & Crayola are firm while the Zig is very flexible and more like a paint brush. . This is a real time video so that you can see how much calligraphy slows down your writing. It’s important to pick up your pen between strokes and make sure you are thinking about where the next letter begins. . I hope this is helpful for you to see different kinds of brush pens AND how to use them. Have you tried any of these pens?! . If you want to see all 11 of my favorite brush pens for beginners and why I like them, I’ve got a blog post for you. The link is in my profile ✍🏻
