Once Upon A Type

Once upon a time is commonly used in the beginning to 
tell a story in the past, well Calligraphy has hundreds of years of heritage and I want to resurface it to my readers. 

We can see calligraphy is being used more and more in recent years, reason probably being some people are trying to seek for more organic and natural strokes compared to rigid shapes and dynamic designs.

This book is a collection of my personal artworks expressed through few different hands—fonts for calligraphy.
Calligraphy forced me to pay close attention to every stroke and curve, it puts everything into consideration. Subconsciously, I've also learned how each font were designed down to the details.

The lesson I learn here is that if you want to achieve something, you have to give in the time and effort. There are no shortcuts, the only way to perfect any skill is through practice, practice and practice.
