<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><i>Calligraphic Drawing</i>, written and illustrated by artist Schin Loong, is a step-by-step guide to the pictorial side of calligraphy. Learn how to make calligraphic flourishes, then apply the technique to draw 15 different flourished animals. You'll also find instructions for embellishing letters and drawing ornamental cartouches.</b> <p/> In the past, masters of penmanship advertised their copperplate skills by shaping their calligraphy and flourishes into elaborate pictorial designs. Now the art of the flourish is back! With her fresh approach to this age-old art form, Schin will take you confidently through each step, from <b>choosing your pen, nib, and ink</b>, to <b>creating calligraphic animals </b>that express your own imagination and artistry. The basic steps for the strokes are simple, but as you learn each new pattern and stroke, you'll watch your drawings develop into ever more complex and beautiful compositions. <p/> By following the <b>step-by-step instructions</b>, you can create stunning drawings of a pigeon, swan, crane, rooster, jellyfish, goldfish, peacock, parrot, owl, raccoon, elephant, puppy, rabbit, fox, and zebra. Each exercise includes a photo of the animal, followed by an illustration and written guidance for each numbered step. You'll find <b>helpful tips and encouragement </b>throughout. At the back, a <b>gallery showcase </b>provides examples of Schin's own artwork to inspire you in your own flourishing pursuits. <p/> Whether you're a designer, calligrapher, doodler, or just picked up a pen, this guide to drawing with flourishes will enlighten and inspire.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Schin Loong</b> is the calligrapher and artist for Open Ink Stand Studio in Las Vegas, Nevada.
