LETTERING + GRAPHIC
DESIGN LEARNING
Father’s Day is just a little over 2 weeks away! If you’d like to go DIY this year or get yours in the snail mail early, this week’s freebie is a Father’s Day card printable. The download includes a pdf with print instructions, trim + score marks all included. The final, trimmed size is 4″x6″ (vertical) which can fit perfectly in any A4 sized envelope. Extra preview image and download link below!
My brand new Skillshare class, Bounce Letters: Adding Character to your Hand Lettering, is officially live! To celebrate its launch, today I wanted to share the trailer for the class, as well as a sneak peek of one of the class videos which you’d only see if you were enrolled. Below the video, I’ve also included links to everything you saw mentioned in the sneak peek if your current lettering supplies could use a few more friends đ
If you’ve taken Waterbrush Lettering Essentials, this is the perfect follow up class to take your own personal lettering style that much further. In the class, we talk about how bounce is influenced on letter direction, how much exaggeration is *just* enough, the best places to add bounce and not add bounce, as well as some practice words to get you started. Have a peek below for everything covered in the class!
With January already well underway, it was definitely time for a desktop wallpaper update! Since we didn’t travel for the holidays, Spence and I have started our 2016 working hard on some exciting new projects! My first ever brush script font is getting ready to enter the font-editor phase (will be available later this month!) and every other extra minute has been spent creating classes, new tutorials, and writing the ebook on getting a full time graphic design job (coming in March!). Spence just finished designing our first Every-Tuesday products page (launching this coming Monday) and created this cool barbershop website template, which he’s currently converting into wordpress. Yep. Haven’t left our computers much, haha. Whatever you’re up to this month or have plans for in the coming weeks, I hope this January 2016 hand lettered desktop wallpaper will get you excited for the new beginnings of new things đ
It’s time for a new hand lettered desktop wallpaper! I’ve really enjoyed making these the last few months and plan to keep these going all next year – it’s also nice to get a frequent refresh on my own desktop đ This month’s wallpaper doubles as a sneak peek! I’m half way through creating my next font – a brush script this time, and I just finished up the full lowercase portion. The December lettering you see will soon be an available font! Look for it next month đ Until then – grab the wallpaper in two different sizes: 1920×1080 and 1280×1024 with and without dates below!
With November right around the weekend, it’s time for a new desktop wallpaper! Here in Georgia, all of the green has officially transitioned into oranges and browns and sidewalks carry a little rustle of leaves with every step. I’m really enjoying the cooler breezes, the absence of humidity, and I’m soaking in every fall walk we can squeeze in before I’m bundled head to toe đ
I decided to go a little ‘harvest’ themed with these November desktop wallpapers, incorporating the geometric feather we created in Illustrator this week, along with a hand drawn leafy stem from the leaves + flourishes pack. The download includes two common resolutions: 1920×1080 and 1280×1024 with and without dates; preview images below!
Happy October! I had so much fun creating the September wallpaper, I think I’m going to make wallpapers a new regular monthly post (it’ll also keep me from having the same wallpaper for 2 years – eek!). Since it’s Halloween month here in the US, I had to go a little spooky with this one đ . In the spirit of ghosts and goblins, I created some hand drawn skeleton lettering for your October desktop wallpapers! The download includes two common resolutions: 1920×1080 and 1280×1024 with and without dates; preview images below!
Welcome to Typins #6! This post is where I share my recent favorite typography pins from pinterest. I’m obsessed with (and if you’re here, I’m sure you are too!) and have boards for general typography (phrases, quotes, full words) written beautifully, just letters and just numbers. I pull from those boards for these posts, so there’s even more over there if you’re craving a bigger type fix đ  Here are 8 of my current favorite pins to get your type on!
Happy September! I made the realization the other day that I haven’t changed my desktop wallpaper in nearly two years! With my current waterbrush obsession, I decided to take our relationship to the next level by creating some new waterbrush script artwork for my desktop! This week I’m sharing the love by giving away these hand lettered September desktop wallpapers so we can all ring in fall properly. Choose to have yours with or without dates in two common resolutions, previews below!
