DoodleSwap #5: Hand Lettering & Typography
They’re done and they’re snailing their way to their new owners! This theme brought back a lot of memories from when I was a kid who had nothing else to do but doodle. I went through a phase where I would create calligraphic illustrations/graphics of my friends name’s or initials, which was about the same time I was really getting into hip-hop and their graphic and artistic styles back in the late 80’s, which was a huge influence in my style at the time. This theme also forced me to take a closer look into the world of typography and its art form. I think I have three to four pages worth of font sketches and ideas, but struggled with the execution for some reason. I originally wanted to create a series with the theme, but was running out of time, so decided that since random is what I do best, I’ll do whatever comes to mind.
Hope you enjoyed this set!
Cheers!!!
