Beauty of Arabic calligraphy

The beauty of Arabic calligraphy is to understand the movement of a calligrapher’s hand, how his writing is overlapping on to each other and the flows and movement are almost consistent. There are various types of Arabic calligraphy. For instance, thulus is one of the types of Arabic calligraphy. It can be transformed into various shapes and sizes which only a master of calligraphy can do. Calligraphy of one master slightly differs from that of some other artist. It also depends on how people see beauty, for instance in an Arabic calligraphy exhibition some people may wonder “How can a man write this?” Or may be it’s an Angel that wrote the calligraphy. The fact is Arabic calligraphy is one hundred percent free hand writing.

Arabic calligraphy is said to exercise one’s arm, hand as well as fingers, it can also refresh and relax the mind. It gives Health.
