CALLIGRAPHY
By Armand Cabrera
Brush Calligraphy
is the stylistic
application of your paint
Brushstrokes carry a message whether
you will it or not.
The stroke is just like the artist at the time they make
it.
All the certainties, all the uncertainties,
all the bigness of their spirit and all the littleness are
in it.

The paint is applied without overworking it once you have
laid it on the canvas. Brush calligraphy can be instinctive
as an outgrowth of your style…or an intentional approach
to strengthen the composition and design of your painting.
Brush calligraphy shouldn’t be haphazard. In other words,
a conscious approach to your brush application is always preferable
to an unconscious one. Effective brush calligraphy is often
a valuable way of intensifying passages of interest and design
overlooked by many artists who restrict their thinking in
terms of color and value.
