Left-Handed Calligraphy by Vance Studley
This handy little book is perfect for any lefty calligrapher looking to learn one of 4 classic broad-edge scripts: Italic, Chancery Cursive, Uncial, and Foundational. Includes valuable information about hand and paper placement, nib angles, and more from an unfortunately rare left-handed orientation. Also included are alphabet exemplars and decorative calligraphy as well as advice on letter and line spacing, creating your own guidelines, composition and page layout, and so much more.
"The art of beautiful handwriting is no more difficult to master for the left-handed than for the right-handed student. But the left-handed writer requires a special orientation which most guidebooks on the subject do not provide. This excellent study remedies that situation handsomely. Generously illustrated, it offers full, extensive coverage of the art of calligraphy from the left-handed writer's point of view" -- Back Cover.
