Information
It introduces the student to the approach I take when teaching in my workbooks and worksheets as well as in my in person and online live and recorded workshops.

I introduce you to ‘Angular Confinement’ which is the first facet of my ‘4 fold Symmetry’. This helps you to see the letterforms in a parallelogram ensuring you are never guessing as to where the curve is in relations to the bounding boxes. Later you discard the boxes writing with an embedded understanding of how to confine the letters to the right height and widths.

The Sampler shows you how the ‘Nib & Ink’ letter, its ‘Monoline’ counterpart, a ‘Brushpen’ letter and the ‘Ductus’ of the letter all sit in the Angular Confinement pattern, allowing for ease of plotting in the parallelogram to build a deeper understanding of letter shape in height and width.

I have included a ‘Left Handed A’ for lefties to test. This is a different form of the ‘Right Handed A’ and is taken from the English Roundhand letters but allows pulling down from the top rather that pushing up in a hairline from the baseline.

You can post your practice in the PAScribe Community on Circle and work along with others who are practicing with these worksheets.

If you feel you want to take your understand a step further, why not consider purchasing the ‘Copperplate Script 2day Workshop’ with over 11hours of recorded content where you can work along with the worksheets. See the link below for the workshop on the PAScribe Scriptorium.
