**Lowercase Alphabet** (Miniscule) Modern Calligraphy Workbook for Small Markers

Do you want to learn how to do modern brush calligraphy for your Bullet Journal or create handlettered quotes and prints? The first step you need to take is to learn the basic brush/marker strokes.  If you’ve already finished the Basic Strokes, it’s time to move on to the Lowercase Alphabet – and you’re in the right place.

In this workbook + companion guide, you will add to your skillset of basic strokes. In addition, you’ll learn which basic strokes to use to create each lowercase letter in the alphabet. You’ll also receive a review of which supplies you need. I recommend practicing one letter per day to continue on your handlettering journey. Once you’ve completed this lettering workbook, you’ll feel confident and ready to start putting your handlettering knowledge together into words.

You’ll receive two PDF documents to download & print at home, or you can take it to a copy center and print one copy for you to practice. These booklets were designed specifically for lettering with SMALL markers.

Want to learn lettering with larger markers? Check out the listing for LARGE Markers.  Each guidebook is specifically created with different marker sizes in mind.
