Have a really, really bad handwriting? Do you hide your notebook from your friends while jolting down all those notes in class? Do they make your life miserable, wanting to sneak a peak?
You can learn calligraphy and show off your improved handwriting easily, now. Here's how.
1. Search for fonts online.
You'll be amazed at the variety of fonts available online. There are many websites dedicated to fonts alone. Browse through these fonts, find what you like best, and then either take a snapshot or download it if available. You can even find more in social media posts, website titles, and movie posters.
2. Trace Those Fonts.
Once you've found "the one," you can start practicing. Trace your chosen font like your life is on the line. If you want to be able to write on screens, then use your stylus and practice on your smart phone, or your tablet.
3. Use Different Types of Brushes, Pens, and Ink.
To be better able to write like an expert, try experimenting with different brushes, pens, and ink. There are tons of weirdly-tipped markers out there that you can use. Use colorful ink to make this learning seem more interesting. You won't find it boring, then.
4. Design Posters and Enter Competitions.
If you want your progress to be analyzed, you should enter competitions and show your work to experts. They'll judge you and you'll learn a lot from their criticism and will get to meet more of your kind.
5. Practice Regularly.
This goes without saying. Regularly tracing your chosen font will result in eventual perfection. You might even be able to create a whole new font, which will be yours alone! That's what happens; you discover your own self through hard work and determination.
Have fun, folks!
