The TPK Modern Calligraphy Starter Kit is the very best kit out there. After years of teaching students — both in person and online — I have a unique understanding of the tools and instructions that ensure your success! That’s why this kit includes:
Calligraphy starter kit dimensions are 9.75″ long x 7″ wide x 2.25″ tall (24.75 cm x 18 cm x 5.75 cm).
The self-paced Beginner’s Modern Calligraphy Online Course is every bit as effective as my in-person calligraphy workshops. There are no time or demonstration constraints, so I was able to include absolutely everything that you need to know! On film, I am able to communicate concepts from different shooting angles, and you can pause and re-watch videos as needed. If you don’t quite understand how to do something, there’s a “Discussion” portion under each lesson where you can ask questions. Lessons include a short quiz and homework assignments. Here’s the course layout, including video durations (minutes/seconds):
Note that this lesson includes a 10-page printable workbook that is separate from the course workbook. If you choose to complete this lesson, you will need a printer.
The course ends with a short video explaining your post-course homework. The total viewing time for this course is approximately 4.5 hours, but I’d recommend allocating two months to do everything that you’re asked to do in the course.
Once you purchase this listing, you will be given full access to the course videos and worksheet set! Please note that you must have or create an account on TPK to take the course. If you do not have an account, you can easily create one during the checkout process (or create one now). Once you checkout, you will receive an email with a link to the course, or you can find the course in your account.

So many things come to mind regarding this course. For one it is comprehensive. Odeas and concepts are introduced thay were beyond my imagination. Lindsey took what I thought was an interest in calligraphy and catapulted it to a beautiful obsession.
The style and ease of instruction is on point. The next best thing to in-person lessons. And when it comws to customer service as in one does not quite get it Lindsey responds. That tickles me when I see a response and I am grateful becaose I know she has a full life.
Indeed I jave recomm3nded others to this modern calligraphy course. Truly it has opened a new dimension of lifelong happiness in my life.

This course was great! I used Speedball pens, ink, and nibs, but my product was amazing! (Because of the amazing instructions.)

I loved this course! At the beginning of the year, I was looking at Lindsey’s course as something possible for me. I’ve wanted to learn calligraphy for many years and Lindsey’s course had it all. She makes it very easy for a beginner to get started with her kit, wonderful videos and written explanations for each section. Did I have a few questions along the way? Yes and I only had to email Lindsey and ask. Her prompt responses and thorough explanations kept me going. Lindsey’s a wonderful teacher and she keeps you interested to learn new and interesting ways to use calligraphy. I also like that I can order supplies from her too. I’m so glad that I took the course from Lindsey!

I purchased this course quite a while ago and I loved every moment of it. I love the fact that you can reprint and practice the concepts taught as many times as you need, and that the videos Lindsey provides you with are great references in case you struggle. I really would recommend anyone who is interested in learning calligraphy to try this course and with perseverance and practice, you definitely will notice a difference in your calligraphy towards the end of the course!

If you are a complete novice to dip pen calligraphy or if you are a beginner and need some tips and tricks to take your calligraphy to the next level, then this course is perfect for you. I was very interested in calligraphy in high school. I went out and bought a calligraphy set but my results were disastrous. I thought I wasn’t cut to do calligraphy and put my pen and paper away. Fast forward 20 years later and my passion for calligraphy has been reignited due to picking up card making. I decided to give calligraphy another chance. As luck would have it, I found Lindsey and The Postman’s Knock. I had been planning on taking Lindsey’s beginner’s workshop in person in Colorado. When plans fell through, I decided that signing up for the online course would be a great place to start. Sure, I wouldn’t have Lindsey right then and there coaching me with my writing but I could email her questions while going through the course. There are detailed instructions as well as videos to guide you on your way. The best part is that you can learn at your own pace and re-watch a video as many times as needed for more clarity. The biggest gem and learning AHA! for me is that having good supplies will make or break your calligraphy. It turns out the reason why my calligraphy “sucked” back in high school wasn’t 100% my lack of experience. It was because I was using sub-part pen, ink and paper. For the amount and level of guidance you receive from this course, the cost can easily be double or even triple what Lindsey charges. Coming from someone who struggled with calligraphy, I saw a marked difference in my lettering before and after taking the course. All you have to do is put in the time and effort of practice!

This is a perfect starter kit! Each item included, selected with intention and packaged in a personal and thoughtful way. Lindsey is also helpful and responsive via email for any questions or troubleshooting. Highly recommend for yourself or a gift for anyone interested in learning calligraphy!

This course was great! It really goes over everything you need to know. I’ve been interested in calligraphy for a long time, but I really didn’t know anything about dip pens. So glad I took this course! The videos are clear and thorough, and Lindsey replies promptly to inquiries in the course comments.

Briefly, I’ve been interested in calligraphy since I was 14 years old in high school. During subsequent years, life happened and I let my accumulated beautiful calligraphy supplies sit. I am so pleased to be reminded that, having purchased this course last year, I continue to have instant access to this course and unlimited viewing of these nearly two hours of video lessons. I am also pleased that this course continues to include unlimited help and technical support. As things begin to slow down in my life, I am returning to pursuing things that are important me. I have quality calligraphy supplies at my disposal, including this course and I fully intend to return to this magnificent learning tool to continue to develop my calligraphy talent. My far and away favorite sections of this course include the Oblique Pen section (Lesson 4) as, so far, my favorite calligraphy font is the copperplate style. I find it an easy and beautiful script. My second favorite Section is Lesson 5, Creating a Calligraphy Medallion. I favor interesting projects that are mesmerizing to look at, yet easy to bring together after using simple step by step instructions and examples. Using this course, I was so happy with the medallion I created. After practicing the tools in this course for a little while, the project I created and am the most proud of is the Ampersand Art Lindsey created on her website and shared with us for free, including the ampersand template (several sizes, as well). Oh my gosh, this is such a fun and attention getting project. I made copies of my Ampersand Art, matted them at Michael’s myself for a song and gave them as Christmas gifts to my family and friends. I was so excited. This was the first time I had the confidence in my skill to share something I created with others. Especially for a Christmas present. Using this beginner’s course was a huge step forward in my personal growth as a developing artist. Thank you kindly, Lindsey, for all you share with us. Your talent speaks for itself and inspires me to do more to develop my creative skills. We all start in basic ways to build and grow our calligraphy skills. To the degree that we keep our hearts open, we can accomplish anything. This self-paced beginner’s course is a great tool to have access to while you wish to dabble in calligraphy and in your quest to master calligraphy as an art form. Don’t think about it too long. Just jump in and do it. Invest in yourself. You will be glad you did. There is great value here. Thank you, Lindsey, for all you have given and continue to give to aspiring calligraphy artists. Be well.

Everything on the TPK website is outstanding and the Beginner’s Modern Calligraphy Course is no exception. I appreciate the “ground up” approach and the words of wisdom offered throughout. After you acquire the recommended supplies everything else you need is at your fingertips from direction to additional practice pages that are easy to print and use. Lindsey provides step by step directions that provide a good foundation to build on. I look forward to the practice time I use to develop this new skill.

I enjoyed the Beginners Calligraphy course just what I needed to figure out the basics of calligraphy. I am a mom of 3 and being quite busy, I don’t often find the time I need to practice, and I am especially grateful that I have lifetime entry into the course, knowing that when I am able to have more free time, I can view the videos again and pick it up from where I left off.
