August Calliarts - Pointed Gothic

 Dear Members and Followers,

If you like Gothic scripts, then this Calliarts workshop is for you.  The version of Pointed Gothic that I will be teaching is based on a 16th Century Flemish hand.  It is written with a 50-60 degree pen angle, which gives a Gothic window shape to some letters.  It is an elegant hand, which lends itself to some flourishing.
