Beautiful lines, beautiful Spencerians

Many people who took the Copperplate English calligraphy class in class 101 have inquired about the opening of the second course and have been waiting.

The capital letters are gorgeous in this class, but the lowercase letters are relatively simple, so anyone can enjoy it casually Spencerian (Spencarian)I would like to introduce you to the English font called. Flourishing (a brilliant extension of the end line) is not something that can be done by learning; it can only be realized by developing writing skills. Therefore, even if you learn, you may not be able to come up with a line you like. So rather than a flushing class, I decided to open a Spencarian class because I hope you can upgrade your writing skills and bring one more new typeface.


What is Spencarian It's unfamiliar to us, It is a typeface that was very popular in the US in the 19th century when decorative calligraphy was popular, and so are you It's a typeface I've all seen before. What we know Coca Colawith Ford Motor Company LogoIt was designed in a Spencarian typeface right away! I would like to share this typeface, which is gaining popularity again today, with all of you and tell many people about the beauty of Spencarian, which has many design elements.

Use it in a variety of places!


I am currently creating invitations and place cards, on-site calligraphy events, and logos and slogans for VIP events for domestic and international companies. While working as an exclusive calligrapher for various brands such as Tiffany, Valentino, and Gucci, I am working hard to promote the beauty of English calligraphy, but as the value of handwriting increases and the number of events for customers increases in the future More demandThis is an expected field.


English calligraphy includes watercolors, botanical art, urban sketches, tattoos, weddings, flowers, packaging, cards, VIP events, and logo production Use in combination with various arts and businesses Being able to do it is the biggest advantage. Learn English pen tip letters and use them in various fields. Everything in this world has the magic of becoming more luxurious and unique with English calligraphy pen letters!


Calligraphy has the etymology of “write beautifully”
The art created by lines and curves makes the eyes of those who see them happy.
If you have already experienced the joy of riding a pen tip through the Copper Plate class,
This course promises to take your writing skills to the next level!

From solid basics to brilliant transformations

Since this is a Spencarian typeface class, I'll teach you basic lowercase and capital letters in this lesson, and I'll also teach you the colorful variations of capital letters. The basic form of capital letters is also very colorful, but the modified style with one more stroke is fun just to look at. This typeface, which has many twisty curves, has the thrill and joy of unfolding difficult techniques such as the brilliant triple axel of figure skating when implemented.


This class focuses on teaching typefaces, but I'd like to introduce you to additional feather flushing in particular. It's a decorative calligraphy, so if you know how to draw feathers to decorate colorful letters even more gorgeously! It's really useful, isn't it?!

It's even more fun to ride the pen tip

When I write, I feel like I'm skating freely on paper with the tip of a pen. That's why it's often described as “riding the tip of a pen.”

The advantage of calligraphy is that the tools are very simple and the volume is small! You will never get hurt even if you slip while riding on the tip of the pen. If you only have a pen tip and ink, you can enjoy it anytime, anywhere, and the writing you learn with the pen tip can be implemented in the same way with any other writing tool, so it's very versatile. Since a fountain pen can be used in the same way as a pen tip, fountain pen lovers can also make better use of these wonderful tools.



Just as we can't get fit overnight, writing ability isn't built in a short period of time. Practice time and skill are exchanged, and anyone who loves handwriting and has sincerity can create this beautiful typeface. We had more time to prepare for the opening of classes. I want to be the kind of lecture that shortens your time.


Have fun riding the nib with me! As well as the joy of immersion, you can also take advantage of improved writing skills!

Class Kit · Coaching Session

[All-in-one package]


! It includes the most basic tools and alphabet materials, so I recommend purchasing my kit as an essential part of taking lessons.


walnut ink

It's a powder made from walnut shells and doesn't spread, so it's great for practice. I'll start by telling you how to make walnut powder into ink.


Pearl ink

The ink contains shiny pearl particles and shimmers particularly beautifully on dark-colored paper. We will send you random colors so that you can create more colorful and enjoyable works.


Oblique pen holder

The Spencarian typeface uses an oblique pen holder rather than a straight holder.


Zebra G nib

We will prepare 3 nibs so you can change the nibs while learning the alphabet.


Milk photo paper

There is no smudging of ink, so the paper is suitable for writing with a pen tip. Use a printer to print guidelines on milk photo paper before use. (To reduce the trouble of drawing guidelines every time, I provide a guideline file I created myself.)


Mermaid paper

I will send you a batch of colors that I usually use, so you can create a work by cutting it to the size you want.


Course materials

We'll send you an alphabetical guide for lowercase and uppercase letters.

Hello! I'm Danbisweetrain, a calligrapher. My work name, Danbisweetrain, comes from my moto of refreshing monotonous everyday life with words and letters as if you'd welcome refreshing spring rain.

Since I was young, I loved writing with empathy for good writing, and I majored in English literature and French literature. And I've always admired art. I found English calligraphy at the center of all my interests, and the process of refining my handwriting became a process of refining myself.

I produce English invitations and place cards for VIP events for luxury goods companies and domestic and international companies, on-site calligraphy events, logo and slogan production, special corporate lectures, and private classes. While working as an exclusive calligrapher for various brands such as Tiffany, Valentino, and Gucci, I am doing a happy job promoting the beauty of English calligraphy and presenting emotion.

English calligraphy also has many traditional typefaces, and although it's very difficult to learn the first typeface, the second and third ones are much easier and more enjoyable, just like parenting. If you observe and express the alphabet with me, you will feel great joy.

Let's have fun riding the nib together!!
