There are plenty of techniques, methods and tools that can be used to create hand-lettering, and designers developed their own way of making hand-lettering compositions. Their methods, tricks and combinations are results of many experiments in drawing and tracing letterforms.
This is a part of a one year project where I tried to get a deeper understanding of hand lettering. As a result I made a small font book with my own hand made font.
«Anyone can select a typeface, change the point size, and add some color. With the style set, the type will be uniform and consistent. However, if you take the same piece of text and hand letter it, it’s unique. Hand letter it again next week, and again it’ll be equally unique. That’s what’s so great about hand lettering - it’s totally yours, and creatively speaking it will always belong to you.» (Draw Your Own Alphabets by Tony Seddon page 6).
Thanks for watching!
