A personal stylist assistant based in Scarsdale, New York, Remi Landau has extensive skills in fashion design and retail fashion operations. When she isn't working, Remi Landau enjoys activities such as traveling, scuba diving, exercising, and calligraphy. Calligraphy is a style of writing meant to be beautiful and decorative. The Romans are believed to be the first to use calligraphy, although several other countries have also used the writing style for centuries. China, for example, has practiced calligraphy for more than 3,000 years. The calligraphy written by the Romans featured a flat style nib, which later evolved into other forms consisting of a variety of styles and shapes. Some of these forms include Caroling Minuscule style, which is upright in form, and Insular Minuscule, which is very pointy. By the 11th century, words written in calligraphy became less ornate so more words could fit onto a line. Calligraphy has evolved into a form of art which uses brushes, ink, and paper. The absorption of the paper, clarity of the ink, and bristles on the brush all influence the style and technique of the writing.
