Welcome to Calligraphy for Beginners on iPad—your gateway to mastering the art of beautiful lettering! In this course, you’ll learn calligraphy from scratch using your iPad and Apple Pencil, with clear, step-by-step guidance designed especially for beginners.  I’m Jackson Alves—a Brazilian designer, lettering artist, and educator now based in Orlando, Florida. Since 2012, I’ve dedicated myself to calligraphy, lettering, and type design, working with global clients like Apple, Montblanc, and Coca-Cola. I’m thrilled to share the techniques that have helped thousands of students and professionals refine their craft.  In this course, you’ll receive an exclusive Procreate calligraphy brush crafted just for you. We’ll begin with warm-up exercises and basic strokes, progressing to the formation of lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers, and complete words. As you build your foundational skills, you’ll also learn how to create harmonious compositions that blend both traditional and modern techniques.

Whether you’re eager to dive into digital calligraphy or curious about how these skills translate to traditional pen-and-paper methods, this course sets you on the path to creating stunning letterforms.
