Feather Flourish || TUTORIALS & DRILLS

Offhand flourishing can look really intimidating, even to those with experience in penmanship/pointed pen calligraphy, but I believe simple flourishes are achievable by all! I break down a quill flourish, including my materials and drills to warm up before getting into it. I also explain the pen grip that I use, which is special for offhand flourishing.
