Why in the world would i expect to find help lining up my calligraphy on a"crooked" site !! ;-) seriously, thanks for your help. I subscribed when i first happened onto your site yesterday -- very helpful in multiple areas!
Thank you so much. This video was super informative & full of good ideas I have not encountered before. Also, I love the calligraphy you share on Instagram. Many thanks for all you offer the community.
Hi Shinah! 👋 Love this extremely helpful video! ❤️ If money was no object (. . . don’t we wish! But for the sake of hypothetical discussion . . .) would you continue to recommend the light pad you in this video and/or the one you currently endorse on Amazon (if not the same)? Or are there any others on the market that you’d immediately reach for? I have read a few debates over re-chargeable light pads (to rid the nuisance for needing an electrical outlet 💯 of the time). Then there are pros and cons to some that reduce eye strain, etc. I have seen some calligraphers swear by the Cricut pad, but it seems unreasonably overpriced and more popular in the crafting & “weeding” communities. As a 💯 newbie to this art form, with a desire to use various card stock for quotes, poems, etc, but truly need the assistance of guidelines or even for those occasions when you want to work from a project that you have created in pencil on draft paper first, what might you suggest as the one-and-only light pad a calligrapher would appreciate?And hopefully could remain a long-term investment (never having to upgrade, pipe-dream, I know)? 😉 Thank you again!🙏
Hey - so I'm not an expert on light pads, unfortunately. I just have the one I recommend in the video (and on Amazon), and I don't use it very often. So it works fine for me so far, but I can't speak to its longevity. I just needed a cheap one for occasional use - other calligraphers who do more event calligrapher will have different needs. If you're looking to invest in a more sturdy lighted, I hear that Huion is a great brand. =)

First time I hear about the white mechanical pencil. Never seen them in canada...I'll try to get one...it would be so practical!

But how do you erase the write lines without spearing the words afterwards?
Thank you .. so helpfull!
Staring at lasers for hours on end cannot be good for your eyes.
