(no native english-writer/speaker, requests are unfavorable, so i also share some i know also picture not made by me)
Hail /gb/,
i come frome /wsr/ in need of help in finding the following; from perfect to good;
- A calligraphy & writing and/or scripture & lettering themed online-chartoom
- A online-chatroom for art with calligraphy & writing and/or scripture & lettering channel
- A small but active forum & community with the aforementioned theme
- A forum for calligrahpy and writing
I asked /wsr/ in hope to join & become a learning, appreciating and contributing member of said community - if existing, or willing to share by anyone. I hoped to benefit from the experience one may have made in said communities, wich Google can not provide.
Anyway, i will keep an eye open for any sign of calligraphy here in /gd/ from now on. As i dont want to come empty-handed, i share the two sites and one YT-channel i know and appreciate.
https://www.printablepaper.net/ - for all kinds of printable paper
http://www.zanerian.com/ - "Promoting the Art, History and Techniques of Ornamental Penmanship" (engrosser, copperplate, ornamental)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xY2G-n-UbUI master-penwoman; Wonderfull ornamental script, reviews on nibs, ink, paper & pens
TL;DR
I tried google, found no chatrooms & dont know if cool people;
i'll be lurking /gb/ and try to contribute if possible
With respect,
M

>>>/wsr/290318
also: This fine art is all i love, i'm poor, mental ill, no friends or family, parents dead - and dead inside. But when i see written word like in these pictures ... it's so intense what i feel.

>chatrooms
did you tried searching on fb groups yet? they are usually closed so you'll need to talk to the admins first.
also there's reddit.com/r/Lettering/ although i'm not a reddit user so i don't know much about that one. and i'll bet there's a few more active groups at tumblr, vk, deviantart or any major "artsy" social media sites

Thank you for the hint!
I dont have or use (nor ever will) any social media - the only thing i got is a e-mail adress, and just recently, made a google-account.
So these are closed doors for me.
The only thing findable are forums, wich i'll have to check out ultimately, as searching for besaid chatroom turns out to be a too specific. :) ...

I quickly gazed upon that video; i will dissect and absord the knowledge presented. As, calligraphy-wise, i have none to repay you, would you accept music?
My offering is a 2h long mixtape, filled with dark, twisted & unsettling dark-ambient music that is very carefully put together in perfect order. (The only con is, the songs being YT-rips - no music format.)
If want, just tell - i'll immediately zip & up it. The pro about it, it'll be available to everyone interested; Also: music and art synergizes.

The video is unbelievably motivating .. not the typical guy who started drawing like picasso at the age of 9.
Perfect example of what one can accomplish, no matter what age! (Another thank you for that video!)

I don't have social media accounts either, but you could bookmark these IGs for future reference.

Here's a dead (and kinda shitty in terms of content to be desu) Slack channel to talk to. Obviously, you don't have to use your real name. Unfortunately you can't see all past messages because it's not an upgraded account.
