Calligraphy designs refer to creating a detailed plan and executing lettering by use of a broad tip instrument or a brush in a single stroke; unlike in build-up lettering that involves drawing of letters. The work should be legible and pleasing to the eye. Calligraphic lettering, which refers to topographic art formed by drawing letter forms in an outline, may be used in calligraphic styles that require lettering.
Several other western styles use similar tools and practices, but differ by stylistic preferences and character set. Modern designing techniques range from functional arts to fine-art products which may or may not be legible. A skilled and experienced calligrapher can always practice both non-classical hand lettering and classical calligraphic art, although the two differ greatly.
Calligraphic products flourishes in wedding and event invitations, original-hand lettered logos, fonts and topography, religious art, memorial documents, announcements, graphic design and original calligraphic arts, and cut stone inscriptions. It is also used for moving images and props for film and television, birth and death certificates, testimonials, maps, and any other work that may require colorful writing. Some of the finest applications of this work are letters patents and charters issued by officers of state and monarchs in various countries.
A round-nibbed pen or a flat-balled pen, and a brush are the principal tool required by any calligrapher. The pens used vary depending on the decorative to be done. Some require steel brushes while others require pens that have more than one nib. Ballpoint and felt-tip pens can also be used despite their works not employing angled lines. Less viscous ink that is mainly watery is used for printing.
Good quality paper, with good consistency of porosity produces cleaner lines, although vellum or parchment is usually used. A light box is required to permit lines pass through the paper while a knife is used to erase the work. Templates and light boxes are used to yield straight lines without detractions on the work that arises from pencil markings. College ruled paper usually act as an excellent guide line.
Western calligraphic designs use Latin scripts. Since the discovery of the Latin alphabet in the second century, it has made tremendous developments including Roman imperial capitals that were made of stone carvings. A new uncial script was later discovered that was used for copying several religious texts, including the Holy Bible.
The size, shape, hair type, and stretch of the ink brush, color, water density and density of the ink, as well as the water absorption rate of the paper and surface texture are main physical parameters that directly or indirectly influence the final result. The calligrapher also determines the final result by the quantity of water and ink he lets the brush take. The pressure he applies on the brush, angle of inclination of the brush, and direction he gives the brush, producing bolder or thinner strokes, and toothed or smooth borders.
Calligraphy designs give form to signs in a harmonious, skillful and an expensive manner. It ensures the thoughts are as important as the way they are presented. The beautiful impression created by these arts motivates many individuals to learn and develop the necessary skills that eventually help them develop their own styles.
