CALLIGRAPHIC FLOURISHING
A New Approach to an Ancient Art
By Bill Hildebrandt
FLOURISHING covers the subject from A to Z. After a detailed discussion of the
dynamics of moving the tool, (including the broad edged pen, pointed
pen and brush) it proceeds to develop an alphabet of strokes used to
build and analyze flourishes. A complete chapter on the design
principles used to evaluate flourishes is followed by the application
of the technique to different situations and to the basic calligraphic scripts. Special attention is paid to Italic and Gothic scripts, with
the material on Fraktur leading to a detailed study of the cadel
flourish. Numerous examples by leading artists are also included. This
book is a "must" for beginner and intermediate students, and will also
serve as an excellent reference book for the professional scribe.
