Basic Calligraphy tools


Hey, guys!
Now you are ready to get some equipment for your calligraphy experience.
What do you need for your Calligraphy? Not much.
Some writing instruments, paper and practice material.


   1. Writing Instruments
It does not matter what kind of tools you use.
It can be whatever you want such as marker pen, dip pen etc. I'll introduce some general instruments in other post.
In my case, I was into the dip pen that I need to get the wooden pen holder and the nip.
That was exotic thing that I can try for my calligraphy.

   


    2. Paper





To do calligraphy, you'll need a paper to write on.

There are particular paper named as calligraphy paper, which is really smooth and thick paper that calligraphy pens won't scratch or bleed through of their work.
At the very first time, you don't have to get all these paper that you need.
You can try a lot of paper - it does not have to be calligraphy paper - and you will find some nice paper that works with you.







    3. Practice






And the most important thing... PRACTICE!!
Outstanding and expensive tools does not mean you are an expert of calligraphy.Practice makes perfect.
So you don't have to worry about other people's great tools.
Do not be discouraged!
Otherwise, you can be the expert with your lovely tools which is handy ;)








The important thing while you are doing calligraphy, it is not all about the results that you did.
It is about the joy and creativity that you focused on your work.
So... what are you waiting for? Just go for it!
