Blottentots and How to Make Them

Description

There are innumerable short poems: the first poems instruct you on how to create a blottentot using a blot of ink on a paper. You will have to fold the paper and press it slightly to spread the ink into odd illustrations. The remaining poems define the amusing characters which you can create yourself. Anyone can be creative using many thin paint colors as you please in replacement of an ink and it will definitely fascinate you. A must try indeed.

The writer, John Prosper Camel is thought to be a pen name of Raymond Carter, who was a calligrapher, however, no specific information is known of him.

Calligraphy is a graphic art in relation to scribing. It is the creativity, style and carrying out of lettering with a large tip tool, brush, or other scribing tools. A modern calligraphic skill can be quoted as, “the art of giving form to signs in an expressive, harmonious, and skillful manner”.

Calligraphy endures to embellish in the designs of wedding and event invites, font design and typography, first hand-lettered logo art, devotional art, notices, graphic design and made to order calligraphic art, cut stone letterings, and commemorative records. It is also made for props and slideshows for movie and television, acknowledgments, birth and death certificates, maps and many others.
