Tools and Materials:

• Prepare the canvas with two coats of gesso,drying and sanding between layers.
• Use cobalt blue as base color,add some white and lemon yellow here and there on canvas to make it visually interesting.
• Write with brush directly if you are skilled in calligraphy alphabets,or trace from some book.You can take prints from computers also.
• i let the base color dry and then write with brushes of different thickness.
• Add some interesting shapes and forms like islamic patterns in your calligraphy.
• When your paints dry ,spray with varnish to make it shine.
