Creating different lettering styles doesn’t have to be as tricky as it seems! Once you have basic lettering anatomy and structure down, you’re all set to start experimenting 🧑‍🔬

This week, I’m sharing the process I used when I first started lettering - this exercise helped me to develop and define my own personal lettering style *and* expand upon it to create new styles. Once you see how it works, just rinse and repeat to enjoy an infinite library of letters created from your hand. ✍️

TECH STUFF + ACCESSORIES I USE

✨ This artwork was created on a 5th gen iPad Pro (12.9”, 256GB) with a 2nd gen Apple Pencil using the Procreate app
✨I recommend any iPad listed here for working in Procreate: every-tuesday.com/ipads as they all allow for pressure sensitivity. I only recommend an Apple Pencil because of its reliability compared to other 3rd party styluses
