Resources

Recommended Lists for Students:

A student of calligraphy needs to awaken all the senses in his body. An exposure to several interdisciplinary fields are needed to see different perspectives. Therefore, these resources contain different art forms.

Students or calligraphers who want to purchase old issues of Friends of Calligraphy Journal "Alphabet" , please email us a note. The old issues contain plenty of techniques from workshops and respected calligraphers.
