Very cool, and instructional too (e.g., fat strokes down, thin strokes up). This reminds me, though, that as a lefty, I still haven't found a good approach to calligraphy. Sigh...

James, thank you for such an excellent, interesting and informative blog. Just incidentally I'm teaching myself copperplate script and beyond, so I'm loving these posts.

I could watch that all day. It's totally captivating.
