Calligraphy website?

Question

What is a good website about Calligraphy?

Answer 1

Although this is an online shopping site for calligraphy supplies, I have learned more from this site than any other: http://www.paperinkarts.com/. It is a treasure chest of information and carries all kinds of interesting calligraphy tools.

If you want to see what others are doing in calligraphy:
http://www.alphabytes.com/pages/resources/calliglinks.html There are lists of calligraphers linked on the left margin so that you can view their work.

For on overview of the history and many different styles:
http://www.thesunneversets.talktalk.net/calligraphy/index.htm This is a fantastic site that teaches.

From Education Planet, an assortment of links to many types of calligraphy resources: http://educationplanet.com/search/search?keywords=CALLIGRAPHY&media=site

For an actual kinetic (moving) Tutorial: http://www.four09.org/mercer/protosite6/tutorial/index.shtml


For a Tutorial online: http://www.inkscape.org/doc/calligraphy/tutorial-calligraphy.html

I hope this helps you out. There isn't just a single site worthy of being so inclusive that it would answer your question. I have found that ask.com is really terrific if you want to run any type of search because it is an intuitive search engine and will list on the right margin all inds of related search ideas to the search you are conducting. You might wish to try doing that for some interesting answers.
