Exquisite to watch, thank you!

I still do calligraphy and illuminated letters when I address cards to people. It just says a lot more than simply writing it (and I've done it so often, I can do it pretty quickly). People really seem to enjoy it, and I enjoy doing it. A truly lost art form these days.

That is my worry too, "A truly lost art form these days".
Makes you wonder just what else is lost to us now that was quite normal years gone by.
