Calligraphy is important because it influences other ways of making letters.

It concentrates on the visual appearance of the written work, and only peripherally on its meaning, although a good calligrapher does want the appearance of the work to in some way reflect the meaning.

Calligraphy is an expensive profession that offers a chance to unleash one's artistic potential. It shows a unique career option for those who have an artistic mind with a creative bend and passion for lettering. ... Professional calligraphers who specialize in handwriting can do wonders with their artistic skills.
