# About me

Engineering student and musician (cello, classical guitar, mandolin) who has begun to dabble in the ancient and awesome art of calligraphy, due in large part to its extreme stylistic and mechanical similarities to playing a bowed string instrument.

I love your style on the flourished capitals. They look like mazes. Very cool! Thanks for the watch!

Aw thanks! They are called "cadel capitals"; basically, you start with sort of the "idea" of a blackletter capital letter, and keep adding stuff until it looks how you want And you're welcome! Like I said, there aren't enough calligraphers here on DA!!!
