No offense, but calligraphy is actually pretty hard to learn, especially the kind you've showcased here. It requires a bit more than a "pen and paper." Just thought I'd put in my two cents.

I agree with you Cate, they look very hard to learn ;)

The first one is very creative.

Some calligraphy in architecture. Taken at the Alhambra in Spain.

A very nice selection indeed. 10th one down is my favourite.

Calligraphy is really hard to learn, but after learn it you can make a lot of great works. Like the ones that are in this post.

Great inspiration. But I'd be really interested in the individual artists. linking to deviantart just isn't enough credit.
