    For the past nine years, I’ve joyfully created modern calligraphy. It never occurred to me to try my hand at a traditional style until I began getting requests for Copperplate calligraphy worksheets starting about five years ago. At that point, I picked up Eleanor Winters’ Mastering Copperplate Calligraphy, and I promptly felt overwhelmed by all the rules and guidelines.

    Eleanor Winters’ Mastering Copperplate Calligraphy is comprehensive and educational. By no fault of the author’s, I find it to be dry. (To be fair, it was published in 1989 and covers some topics specific to that decade.)

    As time has passed, though, I’ve noticed more and more calligraphers using Copperplate in a playful way. As I’ve seen more Copperplate, my fondness for it has increased. It’s kind of like hearing a song on the radio … at first, it might not be your jam, but the more you hear it, the more you like it. As a result, I’ve started playing with this timeless style, and I thought you might like to, as well!
