35. Where can I learn left-handed Calligraphy?
We have heard of the following books:
"Insights into Left-Handed Calligraphy" by Betsy Rivers-Kennedy 1984.
"Pen Lettering" by Ann Camp
the Speedball manual that comes with their pens
AND "Left Handed Calligraphy"...
Bella <ivcf@astral.magic.ca> recommends the following book:
"Mastering Calligraphy" by Timothy Noad, published by Simon &
Schuster 1995. It contains chapters on the origins and development of
calligraphy, materials and techniques, A-Z step by step and
projects. For the first time this calligraphy a book also provides
special notes and diagrams for left-handed calligraphers for every
stage alongside information for right-handers, by the famous
left-handed calligrapher Gaynor Goffe.
K <kamaley@hevanet.com> makes the following suggestion:
If you would like to take a class ask the teacher whether he/she has
taught lefties before. They will either tell you it can't be done, be
willing to work with you or have already taught "one of us."
