Description

It's proven that practicing calligraphy can quickly improve bad handwriting by a better understanding of letters' structure and proportion. Writing bigger letters helps to make curves and lines correctly. The beauty of the letters will make the task of writing more pleasant.

Calligraphy is also a very constructive leisure. It develops virtues such as patience, attention to detail, perfection, willingness to learn, and the sense of beauty.

Calligraphy is a full art form using letters, words and illuminations. It’s also a meditation process when your mind focuses on the strokes, beautifully draw lines and curves, following your intuition and inspiration.

The only pre-requirement to this art is the knowledge of writing, which everyone is proficient. Calligraphy has a high potential of discoveries, it’s one of the rare art form that you can start from a basis you already know: writing letters and words.

Nice they are checking

Flat cake on

I heard from customer service, great by the way, and they let me know you can type the word in so you can learn to write sentences. Cool I did not know that.

Payant

Jul-g on

Tout est dit. Pourquoi une appli apparement gratuite où on peut à peu près rien faire sans payer ?

Great app

Gordread on

This is a great app. The only thing that would be an improvement is better support for palm and hand recognition while using an Apple Pencil..

Salma🤩✨ on

This app was keep on talking me to rate them, when I answered no thanks it took away my right to go practice and it said I had to pay I order for me to use it. The were forcing me to give it 5 stars 😒 worst app ever

Palm detection

Pobdionne on

Good app overall, but palm detection needs to be improved. The palm rejection widget is quite cumbersome, it’s needs to be integrated inside the app.
