In my pursuit of learning more about lettering in art, I signed up for a year long class from Joanne Sharpe, author of the book, The Art of Whimsical Lettering. The class is called Artfully Inspired Life 2016. Rather than trying to learn how to hand letter new fonts that look exactly like someone else’s, Joanne’s focus is teaching you how to use your own handwriting as the basis to create fun fonts to use in your art.

Since you have to take the class to find out the techniques, I will just give you a teaser with a few photos of what I have created this month.

If you are interested in learning new lettering skills I encourage you to sign up for the class now and get started!
