Double Pencil Calligraphy Tutorial

I thought it would be a neat tutorial to show you how to use two pencils, linked together with a rubber band, to do calligraphy. It's something that's easier to do than it may look, and with practice it gets even easier!

[@sumletters]

So inspiring - definitely urges me more to practice more traditional styles. Amazing script. Thank you for the simple, easy to follow tutorial!

[@universalassistant1461]

Thankyou very much Sir you have just changed allot of people's lives. GOD BLESS YOU.

[@cherylbongiovanni9745]

Going to try your technique as soon I find a rubber band. Looks unique and delightful !

[@susieqlalonde9352]

What a fun, easy and unique way to get really cool lettering.

[@karenhankerson330]

It was so cool to see this again. I haven't seen this since elementary school. Boy I just dateted myself lol. Glad it is being brought back.

[@Esoteric_Enlightenment]

I think it's important to share stuff online since schools are cutting out cursive writing at a young age and not caring as much about supporting art and music.

[@sumusm6336]

its wonderful....these alphabets are giving a 3D look...

[@KANISTAONPASSIVE2023]

Nice work

[@wyntermackenzie4952]

I also saw "Tolkien", and being both a Middle - Earth fan AND a calligrapher, clicked. Beautiful work! For a real Tolkien thrill, read Steve Stirling's alternate - future novels; you want the West Coast ones which begin with "Dies the Fire". If the world disintegrates, and you can re-found your part of it however you like..... one of the societies which arises wear a device which is a white tree, seven stars and a crown. I know it's weird to get a fervent recommendation to read a series of books from a stranger, but you really should. Your life will be the richer for it. Thanks again for the writing.

[@Esoteric_Enlightenment]

Thanks for letting me know about the alternate future novels. I'll have to look in to them!

Thank you so much sir for this easier method of writing calligraphy.

[@adwitiyadixit]

I'd love to see some Fraktur done with this technique.

[@karlwolf9805]

I don't do calligraphy, I've never watched a single video on it, I have no idea how this got recommended to me, all I know is that it was great. Also there was Tolkien so you know... even better.

[@Esoteric_Enlightenment]

Ha! KZbin and its mysterious algorithm; you never know what you'll get. I'm glad you enjoyed the video! And yes, Tolkien = Author Supreme.

[@kratiscreativity9330]

Hi i am impressed with your are and video. This is my hobby and now i have started making video like this. Keep motivating me de

[@rockinbobokkin7831]

I use tape. Less sliding. Once near the tip. Once closer to the middle/back.

[@Calligraphybybillgrant]

Difficult to sharpen two pencils together

[@LunaBianca1805]

I guess Rockin means something like washi tape or painter's tape - no trouble in pulling that off and sharpening first one then the other pencil, right 😉?

[@shagufjabi2874]

That really good idea Thx so much 🇮🇳

[@djsnipa1]

This a great video! Thank you! One thing I wanted to point out that kind of was a bit jarring to me... the word Uncial is pronounced unh-see-al. Just Google it and click on the sound of it. I would want to be corrected if I were making videos so hopefully you understand my good intentions. Thanks again for your videos!

[@ewin.art8264]

Wow very nice

[@benw9949]

The calligraphy was great! -- But -- the word is pronounced, "oon-see-all" or "yoon-see-all" or "un-see-all," because the C is before the I, uncial. Uncial and half-uncial are called that because they were a whole and a half inch, just about, in ancient times. (Uncial is related to inch and ounce.) -- -- It's ,minor, but it will help you be understood when you are talking to other calligraphers and alphabet historians.

[@Esoteric_Enlightenment]

Thank you. Yes, I accidentally pronounced it wrong and didn't figure that out until later. At least there's comments like this that can help correct the mistake!

[@rosebud5543]

Hi Michael, I just came across your Awesome Tutorial, I'm lefthanded not sure how its going to come out but I have to try it. Thanks for sharing. New Subbie. Rosebud 🥀

[@Esoteric_Enlightenment]

As a leftie, it's best to create the shapes of each letter by pulling the pencils from right to left, instead of left to right as a right-handed person does. One of the most important rules of calligraphy is to always pull/drag the writing utensil and never push it against a surface. Hope this helps!

[@samahuerta2430]

Is wonderfoul

Beautiful calligraphy but what is your background music? It’s so relaxing 😊

[@Esoteric_Enlightenment]

Thank you! It was just a free track I downloaded from the KZbin Audio Library. I can't remember what it was called, but the audio library has a bunch of free .mp3 files anyone can download!

[@dianestreb3544]

You need to emphasize that the 2 pencil points represent the width of a broad tip calligraphy pen, so just like when learning to use calligraphy pens and beginner italics, you MUST keep the writing tool consistently at 45 degrees. One way to practice or test this is to make the letter X. 45 deg. for the upstroke will produce the thinnest line and 45 deg for downstroke will produce widest line.

[@Esoteric_Enlightenment]

Good point, Diane. Thank you for the comment!
