After 7 months of looking at pictures without training, good?

I know the measurements are wrong and other things but in general? Is this good?

Are folks allowed to post commission requests?

Hi, I’m a native Arabic speaker/reader/writer but not an artist. I want to find an artist whom I can commission for a specific design that I intend to use for a custom art piece. Can I use this subreddit to find someone?

A student's question

is it true that We should start with ruqaa to study calligraphy or can I Study Thulth or Naskh directly, not as a question about rules but what is the logical track to follow

Report 4(?) of making every Surah name in SK

Reworked a few of them

That is it

I feel like I did these a lot better than their originals (i like the nahl one the best)

If I messed up big time though, pls tell me where

:)

How does this one look? (بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم)

I've been trying to make this one work, I feel like this looks better but what are your thoughts?

Trying to write my Arabic name, is this legible? If so I'll be crocheting it soon!

(edit: I'm just now as I'm posting this seeing the missing pixel on the last ي, I'm fixing it immediately so pretend that part looks right lol)

I was wondering if there were instruction books of any kind for the "decorative" Kufic script of the Safavi and Qajar eras of Iran (an example of the basmalah, done in this style, is in the blue section at the top of the attached photo)?

Hello,
Yesterday I started learning Calligraphy and I dont really know if that’s good. Started with the Alif and I really dont know. I used the Pilot Parallel pen. Any ideas or Feedback how I can get better? Any Tutorials? Anything helps.
Thank you!

I paid a calligrapher for this design of the sourate Al ahzab 33 62. It's supposed to be a gift, I don't speak Arabic myself. Could you tell me if it's well executed ? Thank you in advance :)
