How to write Lucas in cursive
- Start with a capital L (undercurve, loop, double curve, loop, curve under). Start at the baseline. Make an undercurve up to the topline and a loop back to the left.
- Lift the pencil after the L, then write the u (undercurve, slant, undercurve, slant, undercurve): two undercurves side by side, the opposite motion of the n.
- Swing up into the c (downcurve, undercurve): a single curve that opens to the right, like a print c with an undercurve out.
- Swing up into the a (downcurve, undercurve, slant, undercurve): a small oval closed at the midline, then a slant down and an undercurve out.
- Swing up into the s (undercurve, curve down, undercurve): an undercurve to the midline, a curve back down that closes on the upstroke, then an undercurve out.
