i think it was a monday morning
mindlessly scroling throw facebook on my phone hating 90% of the information people choose to share hating my self alil cuz i keep scrolling.
as im getting my dayly HATE on i stumble across one of seb lesters calligraphy videos and my mind exploded.
the flawlessness of the form, the smooth comftroble motion of his hand
i was fasinated and had to try it myself,
as in all good things it started alil shaky:
it seemed imposible to do it like the pro's but if theres one life motto that im not cinicall about its "progress not perfection"(alil corney i know but im corney shut up) so i kept going
and kept going (even while vacationing in greece)
as the addiction took hold i started experementing with different tools and styles :
even did a seires of lettering on the takeout bags in the cafe that i bartend
as my interests deepened i started researching the calligraphy styles of languages that are not english, and thats were things got REALLY interesting, i mean english is cool and pretty af BUT omg there is so much beauty that i didn't see before in the more "exotic" languages like this arabic mandala i made:
this sanskrit one:

and this mongolian (messy i know)
and that's all i have to say about that
so ill try to finish this on a non-corny-note and wont say that you shouldn't give up but instead
ill just say progress not perfection
in everything
