Description: The creative design potential of calligraphy is almost limitless. It can be a very personal pathway to explore an enormous array of sophisticated visual concepts. In this striking and original book, images from nature are transformed into a rich source of inspiration for calligraphic compositions: this is not a technical how-to-guide, but an incitement to reinterpret our surroundings in infinitely varied lettering.Renowned calligrapher Denise Lach invites us to look closely at details and textures, expanding our powers of observation and finding ideas in the world around us. Using a range of writing tools and techniques, she takes a playful approach to written script, encouraging readers to look beyond legibility and use letterforms as building blocks, freely interpreting natural motifs to create beautiful calligraphic images. This is an invaluable sourcebook for both enthusiastic beginners and experienced calligraphers who wish to let their imaginations run free.
