Around and around and around we go. . .

This hand lettered script is based on Poem Script.  Poem Script is a stunning Sudtipos font based on an Italian Script that reverses the hairlines (thin strokes) and shades (thick strokes) on some of the capital letters.  This presents a particular challenge to calligraphers and requires turning the work upside down in order to execute the reversed shades.  Since this would be a daunting task when addressing envelopes, the shades are written in their usual position but the elegant charm remains.
