Arabic Calligraphy is an ancient art form and it is based on the Arabic language that emerged around the fourth century CE. There are 26 countries expanding from the Arabian Peninsula from Asia to Morocco in Africa. Arabic has many vernaculars, but there is only one Arabic that all these countries share, understand, and teach in school, and that is the classical or standard Arabic Calligraphy is the artistic written form of classical Arabic and it is represented by 28 letters written from right to left. Each letter has three forms depending on where the letter is placed in a word.
There are a number of scripts (fonts) in Arabic calligraphy but the most popular ones are Naskh & Kufic.
My mission is to keep this traditional art alive by teaching this art using the basic tools that were used from ancient time: ink, pamphlet (paper) and a reed.
