Margaret Morgan:CALLIGRAPHY a guide to hand lettering
I usually cringe when I see books like this, intended for a popular, non-calligrapher audience, as I’m a bit of a snob when it comes to calligraphy and they are usually filled with cutesy scripts that are all but illegible. This is NOT one of those books. This book is fun, accessible, and full of colorful projects, but the calligraphy and design examples are superb. If you simply want to letter a Christmas card or create a menu for a party, Margaret Morgan will show you how and you will not feel intimidated by snobs like me, no matter how your calligraphy turns out. The reason being that her examples are so good, and her design advice so sound, that you can’t help but capture the essence of good lettering design. You may get hooked, a frequent result of a successful project, and find yourself studying the book carefully, you will find a condensed, but thorough, course in calligraphy that you could spend years learning. Highly recommended. SB, 80 pp., filled with color illustrations. $19.99 Add2cart
