<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jamesicus, post: 4774324, member: 14873&quot;]That is quite a tall order [USER=100777]@octavius[/USER]. There is so much information to be covered and I cannot resist going into great detail. I think all calligraphers who are worth their salt are students of Paleography to some degree and follow the progression of Western writing hand historical development from Roman times until the present. There are a lot of gaps there, but I think it would be detrimental to this thread to go deeper.</p><p><br /></p><p>Let me offer this: I determined early on, when I was a beginning student, that my Calligraphic path would be Practical everyday handwriting rather than, for instance, illuminated manuscripts and commercial presentation pieces. It is hard to explain all that in a few sentences. I have recovered one of my archived web sites and I provide a link to it below. Please read as much of that as you can, for it will, I hope, explain my calligraphic endeavors in great detail:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190208145817/http://jp29.org/itdr.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190208145817/http://jp29.org/itdr.htm" rel="nofollow">https://web.archive.org/web/20190208145817/http://jp29.org/itdr.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The pages load somewhat slowly now unfortunately and some of the links do not point to all of the accompanying images. You may be able to recover other pages.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
