    Thank you Becca, I’ve had some of these mistakes doing the drills so this was really helpful to make me aware of my pen hold and angle and most importantly to slow down x

    I binged most of the videos of your beginners Playlist today with this being the last video. I kept struggling with the tip flip so much when I was practicing the oval basic strokes. Should have watched this video earlier on haha.This really helped a lot!

    @gordonc2377 5 років тому +1

    Your videos are always so helpful. I have learned so much more in the last month of watching your videos than in three decades of using books to learn calligraphy and lettering.
    This video is a perfect example that demonstrates problems that can occur and how to correct them, really love your teaching style.
    I just downloaded your Guide to get the proper materials. Once set up I will go back to your beginners videos because I pretty much have been doing everything wrong lol! Should be interesting for this old sea dog to unlearn bad skills.
    Thanks again

    Newbie here. Not alot of choices for brush pen here in a small island from the Philippines. I grabbed whatever brush pen I could get. The problem I got is this very very soft brush pen, that's really hard to do the strokes with correctly. Any tips? Please.....I really want to learn how to do calligraphy.

    • @muktachikerur7439

      Try seeing if the pen is bouncing back if yes ur good to go
      If it’s still not working try using lighter pressure

    as a left hander, I can't make any of these mistakes.. like literally I tried making an oval with a gap top or a tip flip and I literally could NOT. then I tried with my right hand.. it was a bit (a lot) wobbly but I was able to get a gap top no prob

    Is it a good idea to use the brush pens on wood, or other mediums?? I would imagine plastic and glass would be okay, but wood (sanded), is what I am more concerned about. Thanks for your wonderful tutorials. 😊

    Hi! New hand letterer here. With reference to the "tip flip" issue: I'm a lefty- would the 45 degree angle of the pen held in the opposite direction still work? I'm concerned I won't be able to do the same if the pen is angled out to the left while yours is to the right! Thanks :)
