Here I am measuring the width of my tool. The width of the tool is a kind of proportion,
but I can take this same length, and I can take this same idea, and I can get a little
bit more dramatic about the way I draw this line. Here is this idea broken down; here is this
same basic stroke broken down like so, and like so. These are often referred to as nails;
same idea. You see any letters starting to happen? Now, here's an interesting thing, this same
stroke actually is in the rounded forms. So here's a way to start your practice. Notice
the subtle twisting and turning that I'm doing. So what I'm doing is, I'm controlling the
thicks and thins of these lines, alright. It's going to take some practice.
