Questions People Who *Think* They Aren’t Creative Ask Me
(They’re Wrong, Everyone is Creative!)
-
Hand lettering is all about the art of drawing letters, rather than just writing them. It means exploring different typography styles, fonts, creative eras, and custom lettering compositions. You know when you see really cool lettering on a poster? That’s hand lettering.
-
They’re not the same but I totally get the confusion! Both calligraphy and hand lettering create beautiful words. Calligraphy focuses on fluid movements and pen pressure whereas you focus on drawing each letter individually in hand lettering.

Part of the fun of a new hobby is buying the gear for it, right? But before you break the bank buying all. the. supplies., let me tell you about the tools you need for hand lettering:

Pencils and eraser for sketching layouts
Grid or dot paper for better letter spacing
Fine liners for outlining and details
