Calligraphy? I bougth this calligraphy pen, you know where I can learn to use the pen, write nice and neat, free lessons online available?
In 1972 I joined a book burning, it was a concise and informative book that covers everything from copper German Gothic script. He has been out of print for decades, I am sorry to say. However, if you're serious about the subject, I would say you are looking for sellers of old books and buy as many books on the subject, you can (The reason is that there is always a nugget of information in a book you will not find in all your other books.) There is unlikely to find a tutor in this business if you're going to have to depend on your own ingenuity.
Online education lessons would be like trying to send you a haircut.
The best thing you can do for you is to start with a simple book that explains the proper motions, the angle of the pen, pen widths, inks, etc.
To find a book to go to your library and watch some of the books that teach the subject. Choose the book you like a copy to the author, title, publisher, and consider that in a bookstore and order it.
It is preferable that you start with a solid foundation and move forward from there. This means starting with the basics and mastering the basics. Thats hard work. Do not put your hands in your pockets and invest in at least one good book (illustrated) to help you get started. Practice does not make perfect, it is permanent! In other words: "You have to practice it properly to do what you do not mind:" I do not care if it's golf and the art of engraving, you have to engage properly with good instructions.
This business is a matter of repetition pencil strokes and movements, but when you get you a good hand in the art of Calligraphy.I've "made it as a hobby for decades and I can make sure it's worth the effort put into it.
I sincerely hope you wish good luck in your endeavers.
It is an art of writing letters artistically.
When you write with the stylus, you must activate it at different angles, even running a little to the beautiful writing.
I guess you're probably interested in calligraphy in English.
