this is fantastic. of all the dozens of calligraphy sites and pages I have gone over these last few years yours is the most EDUCATIONAL and INFORMATIVE. What you are doing here is, to me, what the internet and its YOU TUBE channels is all about. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge and expertise with others.
On the question of names, in the eighteenth century the typical oval-based looped handwriting with strongly contrasting thick and thin strokes was called 'roundhand' and in Europe (where it spread in the nineteenth century) it was often called called 'English cursive'. The term 'copperplate' was quite a late term.
Your videos are very useful, they are inspiration, motivation for those practicing, like me. I do appreciate your sharing.
Thank you, Connie. Keep that awesome job!
Connie
I have thoroughly enjoyed your presentation and instruction. I can learn from you: truly inspiring and climactic!
I think im going to enjoy your newly discovered channel. Im just beginning my journey in to this beautiful art. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and beautiful skills :)
Thank you for this video, Connie! Very helpful for beginners :)
That Winter's D is also shaded on the upstroke, which means it was added after the letter was written. But I just realized that Lupfer's letters are also slightly shaded on the upstroke, such as on the C and E.
you've got a new fan!
Very helpful and informative.
Beautiful!
thank you so much
Thank you Connie, really enjoyed this video and will search out your others. Did wonder what the difference was between Copperplate and Engrossers script. only just turned my hand to pointed pen Calligraphy having practiced for some years in assorted scripts with broad edged nibs, so getting used to pulling and pushing the pen with an oblique holder, applying and releasing pressure, with the paper turned anti- clockwise is quite a challenge for me. Thank you So much, I completely agree with what you said regarding drills and I Love the way you teach, Bless you! :)
+Philip Lockwood Thank you for the kind words.
I have recently been biten by calligraphy bug and been trying hard without any idea thanks to your video I have a direction
I would love to see what your regular hand writing looks like. How many scripts do you know.
What kind of paper do you recommend for writing?
What paper are you using for your practise, please?
can the quality of nibs diminish quickly? I'm using nikko G nibs and 32# paper, I was using graph paper I bought at staples and my nibs seem you get caught and aren't smooth on the 32# paper after using the same nib on the graph paper.
It all depends on how much force you're using on the nib along with the type of paper. Here is a video to tell when to change a nib ua-cam.com/video/B-novJPrsvE/v-deo.html
Is that pen you are using designed to slide the round end on the paper? I like your videos and have been studying both the lessons and the pens.
+Thomas Hanson Thank you for your kind words. No the wood portion of the pen does not touch the paper.
I really like your video, you inspired me and I'd like to take your classes, please give me some info so I can sign up/attend. Thank you.

I like to know what type of pen you are using? fantastic lettering.
Albert Yong its a Oblique
Are the points on the paper made for you?
No that looks like it's regular dotted paper. Rhodia and Clairefontaine makes 'em. Pretty sure there are others as well.
What pen are you using btw?
It's an oblique pen turned by my mentor Master Penman Billy Lilly
