How to begin

Practice vertical lines, horizontal lines, curves and loops before combining them into letters. Follow a stroke from beginning to end and leave space between attempts. Draw a large version on scrap paper before repeating it within the guides.

Review your work

Observe continuity and direction without expecting identical strokes. A reading arrow does not always show the exact pencil movement; follow the model’s specific marks.

Look, trace and write

Look at a letter, trace it, then copy it into an empty space. Compare its height, orientation and spacing, choosing one detail to adjust on the next attempt. A carefully written, readable word is more useful than filling lines without referring to the model.
