Calligraphy is a form of visual art and is often referred to as an art of stylish handwriting. A modern definition of calligraphy is "the art of expressing thoughts with beauty, harmony and peace". This word has been derived from two Greek words- Kallos and Graphos which mean beauty and 'writing' respectively.
The significance of calligraphy is that it enhances creativity in one s handwriting, improves concentration, develops artistic skills and increases patience. Even the legendary Steve Jobs has given credit to calligraphy for being what he was in his profession. He stated "If I had never dropped in on that single calligraphy course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts."
