Thank you Reply. It is a popular style on Instagram and and other social media because the style is dependent on the writer and therefore every time a word is written it will be different. It is also rather easy to learn as you will see later in this post.

You just need a pointed pen, ink and know how to write in cursive. If you have those three, read on to learn how! If you do not have the above tools or just ordered them you can still start learning the strokes of modern calligraphy with a Crayola Marker Here! Calligraphy practice sheets are an important tool to learning. If you find the lowercase sheets useful to your learning I have prepared a premium Uppercase Modern Calligraphy workbook with 3 times the styles per letter for 78 unique letters to practice!

If you prefer watching to reading I have two Modern Calligraphy videos on Youtube to follow along with:. First thing you do once you have your tools is insert y our nib into your pen carefully, making sure not to touch the tip with your fingers. This water reservoir is to wash your nib periodically after writing, because after writing for a bit, your pen may not write properly due to dried on ink. So just give it a swish and use a paper towel to dry it. Next you will want to dip your nib to halfway up the vent hole above , in the picture below.

If you ever dipped too deep, I would suggest tapping off some extra on the side of the inkwell or making mini strokes on a scrap piece of paper to ensure there are no blobs of too much ink. You can tell if you have too much on the nib when you look at the nib sideways and see a round bump of ink near the tip. Next hold the pen where it feels comfortable, which for me is illustrated in the picture above. It is important to keep in mind that if you are using an oblique holder to angle your hand appropriately for the lettering.

There are two main motions to learn, the upstroke : a light stroke using just the tip number 1 in the picture below and the downstroke : a slightly pressured stroke number 2 below that lessens as you get closer to the baseline. Most letters are made up of these two strokes, which you will practice with your free practice sheets. There are some slightly different strokes required by different letters.

Your upstroke goes up as normal then you take your pen off the paper and move it horizontally right for a little bit then up and around in one smooth motion. Try it for yourself and see the difference!

In the long run it is always better to dip too early to replenish your ink than too late. However, it is not the biggest deal if you make a little railroad, because you can pick up from where you left off by filling it in with some careful tiny strokes on your next dip. Railroading: when ink makes little train tracks as you can see in the picture below.

Now there are those of you that are railroading at the beginning of the stroke and all your ink drops into a bubble so frustrating! Your pen angle could be too high relative to the paper. Try lowering your pen pressure and the pen angle. It also could be your tools. It is obvious that the ink is not flowing properly, so clean off your nib with soap and water and dry it with a paper towel.

As this removes a bit of the protective oils that come with the nib that may be stopping proper ink flow. If you already using this nib, the ink you are using is not the right thickness, and needs to be thinned out or thickened a little bit. Above is a lowercase modern calligraphy alphabet, there are many variations and different ways to write and flourish a letter so if you like writing a letter a different way, go for it!

Try, experiment, practice until you are where you want to be with your calligraphy skills.
