With easy to follow instructions, beginning with how to old your pen and the appropriate posture, this book guides you step-by-step through the fundamentals of modern lettering, adapted from traditional calligraphy, and helps you start your lettering journey with a solid foundation. Put together your starter calligraphy kit with the brush lettering pen set of your choice (or try June & Lucys 6 piece pen set, perfect for beginners!), and get started with your calligraphy practice activities as your make your way through this calligraphy workbook.

Modern Lettering guides you through learning 7 distinct brush lettering and monoline hand lettering alphabets, as well as additional serif and san serif alphabets that you can use to compose the perfect lettering project. Each modern calligraphy alphabet contains uppercase and lowercase letters, as well as additional instructions on flourishes, how to connect your letters to form words, and then how to put all of the design elements you learned into a single composed design. Practice your handwriting by tracing over the guided templates and then letter them on your own.

One thing that sets Modern Lettering apart from the majority of other calligraphy books available is the extensive word practice pages. Learning alphabets is one thing, but key to mastering the art of lettering is to master connecting those letters to form words. With over 18 pages of practice words, you wont feel stranded in a sea of alphabets with limited guidance on how to use them. You will be able to use your brush lettering and hand lettering skills to create stunning completed pieces, from creative art, designs, drawings, bullet journal spreads, tattoo art, and more.
