Bismallah… in thirds? Is that what thuluth means? I assume it’s something three related. If not, what does it mean?
It is three-related C! a Thulth is a third, and the name comes from the fact that theoretically, one third of each letter slopes or curves. It’s considered the most elegant and difficult script to master.
Josh Ma’ShAllah your Calligraphy is coming along. I also some more good news my wife got accepted at PSTA, London.
