Lettering more than just a couple words can be a challenge. Lettering long quotes and phrases can be downright daunting! Not to worry, with a few tips and tricks, you can do this… and I’m here to help.

In this class you’ll learn:

  • The key components of good composition
  • How to plan your layout
  • How to choose a lettering style
  • How to add simple embellishments to create a compelling piece

This class is ideal for anyone who struggles with lettering composition. I will be working digitally using the Procreate app, however, these concepts easily carry over to analog work as well.
