Waltz in Copperplate Style
A fun learning of Copperplate variation and flourishes with arm movement writing.
"Writing is a method of giving colour, body,
or (to speak more plainly) some kind of existence
to our thoughts, and is performed by
tracing or delineating with a pen small figures
or characters which are called letters, upon a
white, thin, and slender substance, commonly
called paper : those figures have names, and
those names, when joined together, represent
the sounds of words."
