Calligraphy

Just when I thought we were done with typography, we moved on to Calligraphy for one of our workshops, however I was surprised on how fun calligraphy was. We had to create calligraphic alphabets and visual demonstration working with a flat brush and ink. I found this task simpler than expected although it was my first time doing something like this, it was a very engaging task. Although I'm not fond of doing typography, I did find the workshop very enjoyable. 
We first started by writing the alphabet which was fun to do as I was experimenting with the different strokes. It did feel like painting and as a person who is terrible at painting as I've hardly done so, it was very easy to do, especially as I focused with one colour at the time.
We then moved on do using different colours and using different fonts which got me even more motivated in the workshop. I experimented by trying out the different colours and seeing what message i could write on the paper, linking with the colours.I was very proud of the outcome as there wasn't much mistakes and the colours looked very vibrant and eye catching.
