    I would recommend anyone interested in Calligraphy to take this course. I liked that she took the time to explain the basic strokes and the importance of practice. I also enjoy her being authentic letting me know that with all her years of doing this she still does warm up strokes before tackling a project.

    Great course for the beginner. My only complaint, and it's not really a complaint, just an observation, is that she could have refrained from using the word like and basically. I think these words are now getting ingrained into our culture and to me, who is of another generation, is annoying.

    I was immediately drawn to this class because the camera work caught the find detail I was looking for. Love the calligraphy style itself and seeing each letter drawn with Bianca's explanation of why certain things are done, such as relationships to lines, was very helpful. I had been looking online for very specific information on pen angle AND nib angle, and this video cleared up some questions I had. Also, information concerning how much ink to use (covering the vent hole) solved another issue I was having. I also like that Bianca emphasized the basic strokes for daily practice. Also Bianca explained how she stops and starts for specific letters and this helped me figure out some issues I was having. This is my favorite of 5 online calligraphy courses I have done online! Thanks for offering it.

    Great class for introductory calligraphy! The camera angles make it easy for you to really study her hand strokes too. She teaches you the basic strokes and goes through each alphabet so it's the perfect speed to follow and practice along to. One thing I wish I had done was bought the proper calligraphy pens with the nibs, along with the calligraphy lined paper.

    I am loving this class. It helped me so much in getting my letters right, and cleared a lot of problems for me.

    I found this class incredibly helpful. In fact, after this class I hand-addressed all of my wedding invitation envelopes using the calligraphy skills and materials I learned here. They turned out beautifully, I got a ton of compliments, and I didn't have to pay a professional hundreds of dollars to do it! The course itself is focused and packed with information. I liked it so much I bought another course from the instructor. I haven't taken it yet, but I'm looking forward to doing it this fall when my work schedule eases up a bit.
