I picked up Creative Lettering because I’ve constantly been trying to get better about my handwriting and I am definitely interested in lettering. It’s one of the things that I’ve wanted to get better at and not have spent the time on for a few years now.
Sketching was like this for me until I finally sat and took it seriously. I know I have to do the same thing for lettering.
The artists in this book are a great start. There is such a wide variety and range that it’s great to look through and explore and see what style might be interesting to me and what I might want to explore more and/or use as a starting point.
If you’re interested in lettering, I highly recommend this.
Hi Karen
I also purchased this book a few weeks ago and have started a Lettering Journal so that I may try to improve. So far I only have two entries and it’s a slow process since I have only so much time to practice. Isn’t it nice to have a book that has many good examples of fonts and lettering in one place? Seems like whenever I search the web for such things, the examples are so scattered or not exactly what I’m looking for. Kudos on the great find!
I am so glad that you wrote this review! I have had it in my Amazon wish list for a long time now! Next time I have some extra $ I am going to pull the trigger & buy it! 🙂 I can’t wait to see what you do with it!
