                                          ART


In art class, we are learning how to write blackletters. To write it, you would need a calligraphy pen. Blackletter was a script that was used from around the 1150's to the 17th century. Blackletter was used for the German language until the 20th century. Blackletter is also known as Gothic script, Gothic minuscule, or Textura. 
Last art class, we had to do the alphabet in blackletter on a piece of looseleaf. Once we had finished the alphabet, we had to do a quote. Blackletter can be written big or small, depending on the size of the tip of your calligraphy pen.

Thank you for listening to my presentation!
