Note that this eCourse was created using Adobe Photoshop CC 2015. Since then, the program has undergone some small updates. This should not affect the usability of the course, but you may notice some differences as you work in the program.

*I created the course using Adobe CC; all videos and screenshots in the eBook use the Adobe CC interface. However, learners have had success with previous versions of Photoshop as well as — in some cases — Adobe Elements. If you are not using Adobe CC to take the course, note that your Photoshop setup will not look exactly the same as the one used in the course.

Hi Lindsey,
I am a complete beginner to calligraphy, started yesterday actually, I stumbled across you whilst looking for practice sheets.
Have downloaded all your free ones haha! Im interested in this course but what do I need to purchase from adobe? Is it just Photoshop or is it photography? On the website they are different.
I cant wait to do more practice today and eventually, hopefully, become proficient in beautiful handwriting.

Every course I have purchased from Lindsey has been great and this one is absolutely no exception. I have have attempted to navigate Photoshop several times without success. When Lindsey says she will walk you through it step by step she truly walks you through the program in a way that it is clear to understand. The homework assignments give you the opportunity to use your own photos and pictures seamlessly. Not only does she walk you through Adobe but explains why you are doing what you are doing.
