I'm kicking it with the letter "k"

According to my instructor Becca, the letter "k" is one of the hardest letters to do in calligraphy. It's four strokes and two of them are challenging. One is the mini p and the other is a wide-angle letter "v." A lot of beginner calligraphers don't like this letter.  For me, I was able to get it. The awkward shape "v" gave me a bit of trouble.  

I rewatched Becca's video several times. Just like with other letters, I had difficulty doing it. I slowed the video down, watching her hand movements frame by frame. I was able to learn how to do the last step in the letter "k" which is the awkward "v".  

I pretty much got it down after the first writing practice sheet. I did a second one to make sure. I'm happy with the results. I'm getting closer to reaching the halfway mark for the alphabet, which is the letter "m". I still have one more letter to conquer before reaching it, and that is the letter "l".
