Creativity // Getting into hand lettering {#CrazyRebelliousArt: Day 2}

Monday, November 02, 2015

The topic for Day 2 of #CrazyRebelliousArt is "How did you get into your field?" but I kind of covered this topic a few weeks ago when I shared the Creative Journey tag so I feel it's a bit repetitive to speak about it again, so instead I'm speak about how I've been getting into hand lettering recently.

Well, I say I've been getting into hand lettering but it's a bit more than that. Over the years I've obviously loved using letter forms, fonts and quotes in different areas of my work but I've never really tried to draw them myself. And the other week after getting a little inspiration for creating a typographic piece and also being inspired by Polly (of sighh.co) with her amazing typographic designs I had to try and do some for myself!

So I've added a few photos* of some of the things I've been working on- some I still need to finish because I couldn't think of how the letters should connect (I'm looking you, 's' in escape). But I've also got other quotes and little sayings (?) that I want to try too. Saying that though, do leave below your favourite quotes or sayings because I do need more practice of doing different styled layouts! And I want to try and do something with them at some point but we'll see...

*I thought I better just say I do realise that it looks rediculous and not much sense that some of these are incomplete and one simply just says "Wake up and smell", but all will be revealed in due course!
