Fountain-pen regular script copybooks should have correct fonts, clear strokes, and changes in the smoothness of the calligraphy. In other words, they should have calligraphy standards, artistic taste, and the unique beauty of the art of calligraphy. The strokes are as straight as matchsticks, and then they are piled or pieced together to form words. Although they can be piled up and pieced together in all kinds of strange ways, it is not a work of calligraphy art after all. So whose copybook is the best for practicing calligraphy?

15 Calligraphy Practice Copybook Recommendations on Calligraphy.com


1. Beginners should be especially careful when buying fountain pen copybooks. They must not take it lightly and just buy a copybook to copy and learn. Some beginners are eager to learn books and are eager for success. They buy copybooks when they see them and come to them when they are available. The result is counterproductive and money is wasted. If they learn bad copybooks and go down the wrong path, the problem will be big. If you have many ideas about which copybook to choose, or are hesitant or hesitant, you can ask a calligraphy teacher or experienced calligraphy classmates or friends for introduction and guidance, or you can entrust them to do it for you based on your current level and learning progress. Choose the right copybook. This can reduce blindness and avoid being fooled by bad copybooks.


2. The role of copybooks cannot be underestimated, and it is even more important for the majority of self-taught calligraphers. Learning calligraphy without copybooks is never a wise choice. When it is difficult to buy the ideal fountain pen regular script copybook, we can also buy a brush regular script copybook to copy. It turns out that this is an effective method. The author believes that using a pen to copy calligraphy in regular calligraphy is better than copying from ordinary calligraphy in regular calligraphy that can be purchased in the market.


The fountain pen cannot be used directly against calligraphy brushes in large regular scripts, so it is better to use calligraphy brushes against calligraphy books in small regular scripts.

Show it. For these reasons, some publishing houses specially invite calligraphers who are proficient in both brush calligraphy and fountain pen calligraphy to use fountain pens to engrave famous monuments and inscriptions from past dynasties for publication. So friends can also buy it online.
