Figure 166. Twofinger brush grip
(b) How to do vertical and curved brush strokes. Figure 167
illustrates how to make vertical and curved brush strokes for the
letters D and O. To form the D, your first stroke is a vertical stroke
(step 1). After you have completed the vertical stroke, turn the brush
sideways and squareoff the top and bottom of the vertical stroke (step
2). You then make the left half of the curve holding the brush between
the thumb and forefinger, twisting the brush in the direction of the
stroke (step 3). The final step is to connect the curve as required to
finish the letter (step 4). To draw the letter O, you start by creating
two curves, and then turn the brush on its side to complete the letter.
