Oh my gosh, you guys. It’s finalllllly done! Today I’m happy to announce the debut of my first ever brush script font, Tuesday Script! I started this font in early December, following the same processes as the font project, but this time in script form, so there were a few adjustments to make sure all the letters flowed and connected properly together. Plus – this font comes with international supported characters so how those were made in the program was another learning experience 🙂 I took the leap and purchased the pro version of Glyphs (which is not so cheap, but I was able to get a discount by providing them with my itunes receipt from my Glyphs Mini purchase). I’m no expert yet, and when I figure some of the fancier features out, I may create a full class (is that something you’d want?), but for now, I’m celebrating the win of having the font complete and ready for you!

Spencer coded up another text editor, so you can try the full font out below. I’d love to hear what you think!

A couple of weeks ago, I shared some tips for using a waterbrush to create watercolor lettering. It was so well received, I wanted to do a follow up using that same waterbrush, but with ink this time. Yep, I filled that blue waterchamber with super black speedball ink instead of water, squeezed + lettered to my heart’s content 🙂 Before filling the waterbrush with ink, I had been using a Tombow for my brush script lettering, but after burning through a few pretty quickly, I was in search for an alternative to save a little dough. That led me to the waterbrush and I haven’t looked back! In this week’s video, I share some basic tips for getting started with your own brush script lettering. Lettering in black vs. watercolor will quickly allow you to scan your artwork in, vectorize it and use it in a bunch of applications quickly, like masking or font making (more on that next month!). Let’s get started!
