Thought all calligraphy was slow then turn up on Saturday 12 October 2019 for some Fast Roman.
This is a MAJUSCULE “Hand”. That is, there are no ascenders or decenders and the letterform requires an interlinear space of 3 or 4 penwidths, variable depending on layout and design of text. Very versatile letterform lends itself to Decorative Capitals. We will explore simple capitals and create one or more name tags.
