"Writing is mysterious in that it speaks" said Paul Claudel. Old pleasure, playful and artistic pleasure - to the point of giving letters the shape of an arabesque by an uninterrupted stroke of the pen - writing can become a privileged means of communication with others since it is the reflection of ourselves. Throughout the pages, you will discover the mastery imposed by hand in the outline of the letter, the signs of Onciale, Caroline, Gothic, Chancellor or Englishwoman. A few exercises to soften the wrist, a well-chosen material, the essential preparation gestures, a few examples of alphabet books, will guide you towards the calligraphy of your own invitation cards, envelopes, menus or calendars ... A gallery of international calligraphy , for the most part unpublished, completes the pedagogical approach of this work to allow you to broaden the field of your experience towards contemporary works.
