This class is all about creating lettering art rooted in typography and hand drawing letterforms. It's a simple system with results, and NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY! Watch everything in action, as i demonstrate each letterform and project in MOTION! I want you to SEE how to form letters, not just give you ideas about lettering, but i want to SHOW YOU HOW to actually make them with a style based in fonts and type.
