HUGE fan of Glen!!!! I have been following his work since I was 17 and I am 58 now. Keep the Glen videos coming. Awesome to see your work again Glen!!!! Hope to see you in Vegas. Glen you rock!!!!
as an artist myself, I really enjoyed watching you in action. You layed that paint on like Michelangelo! I don"t do lettering very often, and was very impressed!!
I have been to several painting seminars in my area for the last 3 years at Fenders custom colours from a guy that says you and another guy Bill Ridell are the best at this technique. And he says he worked at Knott's berry farm with Ed Roth the rat fink guy. I never knew he had a normal job. He says he noticed your work back when he painted race cars. He told us the east coast guys came over and showed us what color was and how to use it a bit differently. So he shows us the west coast style and east coast style. He uses you for his east coast style on lettering and a few others. But I remember you the most. In a few if his seminars he used you as a reference for Airbrush work and lettering. That why I remember your name the most. Every now and then I watch just to refresh my memory.
When you over commit to a flourish. Amazing work!
Beautiful! The tail piece on the g was to demonstrate the versatility of the brush to show that it's not only capable of the script but also scroll work.
Ah. I was afraid he was having a stroke.
All absolutely perfect! (except RIIIIGHT at the end with the spiral making those circles, just a tad much because it went over everything else he'd just done)
Pay attention you younger guys, this is one of my Hero’s!
Good God! Mr. Weisgerber makes it a look so effortless. Amazing.
Absolutely stunning! It's such a privilege to watch such skill in action, thank you.
the brushes he uses are carefully cut from his own hair that's the secret to those beautiful strokes.
Actually its his pubes!
HolyCrapAA I think it's his arsehole's hairs... Disgusting huahauaaaaa
Amazing hand control!
More from Glen, guys, this man is incredible to watch. Thanks!
Holy cow! Such talent! Made this look so easy. Loooove this style!
This dude could be a surgeon... amazing control/coordination.
After a surgery with a G cutted on the skin lol
Amazing. I said to my wife tonight, "Is it wrong for a man to love another man?"... she said, no.... I've been a lettering freak all my life. I made a video called, ' The Fundamental Rules of Lettering". It's pretty basic, compared to what you're doing, but it shows the basics. Thank you for this. it's amazing.
He made me take my mind off of my problems for a few minutes. Thanks man. Beautiful work
I've watched this, like, 15 times in a row. It ridiculously hypnotizing.
When I was a bit younger I had a flow like that with my hands. It always felt great to be able to have a steady hand like that. Amazing work... I think he went just a little overboard on the loops at the end, but still amazing.
Slash went nuts on the G.
DeD
yh the G looks shit aka crap
Yo I after he did the third loop over I was like ok this is going somewhere then he just went overboard
Lol- too many circles on that G , but not bad slash
Gave me flashbacks of vietnam
That is fantastic, I enjoy watching the videos as much as the artwork itself.
That is simply amazing. Incredibly talented. Beautiful letters.
Hand-lettering Pro! This is an amazing artistic ability. Beautiful work.
That is gorgeous. I'm always amazed at my husband's skills with this, while at the same time his actual handwriting is horrible! LOL.
I have to laugh at everybody hating on the G when I bet nobody who commented would be worthy of cleaning this man's paint brush. Besides the point of the tail on the G was to show you a technique. Wake Up smell the coffee or in this case the paint thinner and awaken your inner artist.
Even the breathing is finely articulated. Masterful work. Just a pleasure to watch
So enchanting, so melodious. How can one express the rhythm and flow of this beyond excellent calligraphy. Unspeakable. Great.
THIS. IS. SO. SATISFYING.
美しく英文を描くこの人の魅力に感動しますね。筆でペイント文字の流れるような描き方は素晴らしい。彼の技術に評価したい。間違いなく美しく書きとても見栄えの優れた作品に仕上げています。ほんとに素晴らしい特技をご覧になって下さい。
これは、感情が揺さぶられます！

Glen, thanks for the lessons I am really appreciating your work and the detail you go into with your scripts and inclusive of customising equipment (quills). Thankyou
i don't understand how some people don't like the swirls on the letter g, i thought it was quite beautiful and fitting.
likewise, people don't understand how you can like the swirls on the letter g, it was not attracting at all to my eyes.
One word: amazing!
In this world of a-computer-font-for-everything, you have to love hand lettering.
Ben Carew Indeed!
I agree with you :)
That's incredible. Fascinating to watch!
This guy is fkn incredible....I'm certain his just showcasing his skills and what can be achieved in that g.I could watch him all day.
I was with him until 4:28 somewhere... then it stopped making sense for me.
totally agree. but up til then i was in awe
Haha thats showing off and he has right to.
When I first red your comment and I was half way I was kinda weirded out by what you said.. then I watched it all and I died laughing.
Incredible, right up until that tangled mess at the end.
lol ikr. i was like wtf is he doing??
James Raymond Hahaha for sure, I laughed out loud when I saw him start looping all over it... like wtf are you serious man?
+James Raymond James can you beat it? Lets see some of your lettering,,,,
+Paxson Woelber Paxson,,,can you beat it? Lets see some of your stuff,,,,,,
+David Doyle see, when you get food from a restaurant you can complain, even if you can't do better, but that's why you're there right? Because they can cook (or so, they should be able to). I think that if you comment that you don't like it or they messed up, you shouldn't use that against them. I mean, the dude made a video about calligraphy and 'messed up'.
Beautiful work. Love the color of that paint.
I chuckled in amazement,so envious of your talent!
my buttcheeks were clenched so hard during this video
LOOOL agreed
N. N.
so good but the circling "g" part didn't fit
yup he lost me on that infinite loop
+Guillermo Ramos same here
+Wendy Jia Yep, two rounds too many
You are truly an amazing artist! Love your work!
Hi Glen, you are just sooooo amazing, love watching this vid over & over again, thanks
No shit though, when you look at the finished product..if you saw a sign with those letters on it, you'd assume they were printed by a computer unless you looked a bit closer. I agree that the G is weird, but he's a veteran of a time when sign painters and the like knew a thousand beautiful letter styles like this one and could finish them off with whatever flourish they chose
You are very nice artist
I was expecting the G to kill it! But I was a little disappointed :( beautiful writing though, I hope I can do it would day!
Had to watch the end again. I love this.
This is so satisfying:) I could watch this over and over.
lol like everyone is angry with "g"
+jihyun7372 and none of them could do any of this lol
+Toni Chamberlain yeah for real. I hate the G too, but if I could do this, I might make the G even crazier lol
I have no idea why the G is hated so much. I think it looks better.
Yes, because even if one couldn't make calligraphy as good as this artist, that by itself doesn't preclude him/her from giving an honest opinion about it. You can't play basketball as well as Kobe Bryant; should that stop you from laughing at one of his boneheaded moves? Art is made for the appreciation of the audience, not the artist himself. Otherwise why hold art exhibits? Overly long and non-too-inspiring flourishes like that on the "g" ruin the overall coherence of the characters.
como pintat
Just beautiful! (Although that 'g' annoys me for some reason - I couldn't do it myself though)
Phyl Renshaw Relax, it's just for the instructional I assure you. :)
This is something I could watch all day
I met him 25 years ago at Mr J's. He was weird then, too, and so, so talented. Glad to see he's still at it!
Honestly think he was just as pissed with the "g" as we are 🤣🤣 The video ended fast af 😖😶
Outstanding but overworked that g. His first 3 passes were perfect if he trailed off from there. Perhaps he is showing us how these circular movements flow in movement.
Stunami Yes, it's all absolutely for the instructional.
+Stunami I think the main point was to show that in diluting your ink for flourishing, you can maintain a long thin line and flair it at the end with one stroke.
OH my word! that is something else.Perfect lettering.Love it.x
There are always the jerks that leave stupid remarks bcz they know nothing about creativity, or manners! I think you do beautiful work, and I’m very glad that I found you here. I see that this is an old post, but once you learn this Art, you never really stop. I do appreciate this whole process since I took Calligraphy, and creative Lettering through high school in the good ol days. Still use it almost daily! Thank you for sharing your gift!
The nasal whistle, my friend.. That is the ONLY thing I could concentrate on.
I feel embarrassed for you making such a comment.
Pierre Ripplinger Uhm.. okay?
You're hot
That is the real "G" string.
AMAZING !!!!! Your control of that brush ... I wish !
I could watch this all day
Great control of the brush,you're a true signwriting artist.
Crafty work, I wasn't very fond of the G tail though
the g ruinned it tho
I took Glens class . I could watch him letter all day. The only thing better is watching him do chrome.
So beautiful! Watching that was like a spa experience.
this is perfect, i just don't like the G.
when Slash Retired~
Oh man. Watched it to see what the big fuss was about on the G. Totally worth the wait. Amazing.
such bold confidence in tackling that g knowing that one slip of the brush could wright off the whole project
new video name: Biker Does Calligraphy
This makes me really upset I'm not right handed. Good luck getting these kinds of strokes with a left hand!
JWhitnee work backwards
JWhitnee Practice stability techniques. I'm a lefty too.
Learn Arabic?
Have you tried upstroke instead of downstroke? All lines are pulled bottom to top, easier! Lefties should develop their own system and stroke order, it'll take some time but results will be quicker and cleaner than trying to emulate right handed style. Only time right-hand top to bottom lettering works for (also a southpaw) is in reverse glass painting.
Love watching you work man .. So inspiring 👍
Awesome. I wish there were more videos by this guy.
That was bad ass but you fucked up by doing all that extra shit to the G .
it's good but the g is not
Inspired me to practice more, great lesson! Thank you!
very cool my friend for free hand keep doing these letters they bring a sense of joy to me God bless you sir
O M F G !!! Impressive! How many hours a day and how many years did it take this guy to achieve such a level and dexterity?
his nose whistle is bothering me lmao
exo moon I thought that was me lol
I have been hand lettering for 35 years and I am impressed as all get out. Not too many people these days have the discipline to practice enough to do this.
You, Sir, are an artist. I am incredibly impressed :)
Proper ROFL @ 4:32... Way to ruin a beautiful piece of work with that shit.
The last "g" was a bit much though
You make it look so easy!
This guy's got the precise hands of a SURGEON. Awesome to watch but impossible to imitate!
I'm sorry but the sound of you're breathing gives me anxiety and I don't know why
LMAO
anyone one else slightly irritated by his breathing sound?!?!?😕😤
(Jaw dropped) That....was.....insane. Insanely good, my Man! Thank you for that.
You make it look so easy.
Sorry but that last 'g' just looks terrible.
Wow! Brilliant Masterpiece! 😊👏👏👏👏
This is magnificent!!! Mind blowing experience I must say.
Wishing these getaways still took place, would love to learn under weisgerber
Excellent tutorial! Thank you!
So impressive, I got very relax watching this video.
That looks amazing.
I'm hypnotized. Oh wow! ♥ Love it.
That was beautiful to watch. I have been enjoying learning to write with new tools but with a brush! Dang that was cool. The flourishing was pretty rad as well. I need to go buy a brush. Rock on!
Very gorgeous penmanship, thank you.
Beautiful work, sir...from one artist to another...love it :-)
Thats great work. I love this way of painting letters. Best wishes from germany
incredible talent!
I do pinstriping and have a HELLUVA time with lettering. Definitely a different craft. Much respect
This is like watching a ballet. I was nearly hypnotized, until the tatts brought me back to reality. Just gorgeous. Really.
Awesome! I'll try to do it this weekend for a pizza bar. Give me good luck ( and patience ), with this little example we can learn much! Thanks for sharing. Awesome Channel!!
