Brush Lettering: A Fun and Comprehensive Guide to Creating Modern Calligraphy with a Brush Pen

Only got this because the one I wanted wouldn't be here in time for the birthday - this beauty came the next day, all wrapped in cellophane, a lovely solid, hardback book with an elastic book closer. I took it out carefully to check and it's great. The paper is lovely and thick, and there is enough instruction and then space to practice. I'm very very happy with it and wish I'd had this when I started, instead of the 4 that I bought myself ;-) Thoroughly recommend for the beginner.

Brush lettering book was bought as a present for my daughters friend who loved it

I follow Emma Witte on FB and IG and bought this book because I like her work and her really personable interactions with all her creative fans.. She's encouraging, helpful, full of advice and is straight up honest as F!! Her book is a reflection of her everyday work ethics, knowledge and passion for being creative with lettering! She's fantastic and her break down of how to work your brush pens, letter shapes and materials is simple, easy to follow and done in good bite sized chunks. Nothing is complicated or confusing... The reason for 4 stars... I want the work/practice sheets to be bigger!!

This book looked very comprehensive and detailed but I gave it away as a present and the recipient was very pleased with it.

Good for a novice. Well laid out and informative.

I like the friendly way it is written and you feel you are talking to the author.The book is clear and well layed out.My only criticism is that half the book is full of practice papers when this could be full of more information and instruction.

It's a good step by step tutorial for learning one particular script. It won't give you ideas for other alphabets or styles.

my daughter loves it

Perfect for learning lettering in a straightforward and easy to follow way ... lovely hardback book with handy elastic for marking where you are at, r to keep the book neatly, tightly closed... and attach a pen!

A mio avviso è uno dei migliori libri mai provati. A differenza dei classici eserciziari, ci sono molte più nozioni, come ad esempio una sezione molto corposa sui vari tipi di brush pen / strumenti e una bella sezione di composizione.

Hands down the best "step by step" lettering book I have found thus far and I have literally bought them ALL. If you are a beginner and want to learn the basics to lettering with great stroke instructions then this is a great book to start with! I wish I would have found this book when I first started lettering! But I'm still always happy for the extra practice ❤ I wish this book had more in terms of projects and space to practice the blending, shadowing, highlighting and practice pages for combining letters and words, as well as a section specifically for bounce lettering and practice because I've gotten my actual lettering down pretty well but have been struggling with bouncing baselines and etc. So those are the reasons for the 4 stars instead of 5. But again, I wish I would have had this book for the beginning of my journey!! Actually, as a beginner book I would rate this 10 stars so ill change it to 5, just hope those who are more advanced in their journey see this!

Easy to understand

Es exactamente lo que buscaba. Un libro que además de teoría incluyera hojas de ejercicios para principiantes. Me encantó. Además tiene pasta gruesa así que está hermoso.
