This lovely book teaches the art of hand lettering in an easy-to-follow and inspiring way. There are alphabets to copy, lessons in bite-sized chunks, practice pages, and suggested activities. Shading, coloring, and flourishing tips abound. The book wraps up with ideas for using the art, including envelopes and signs.
Instead of writing, the author suggests readers to hand draw the letters out. It's a new idea to me as I am a brush-pen user. I tried with a couple letters to see how I liked this new idea. It took longer time but I realized I learnt more such as shadowing.
Disappointing. Very little how to.
Disappointed as there is very little instruction here for the beginner in learning how to do lettering. More of a lot of photos of the finished product and very little instruction. Disappointing. Wish I could get my money back.
Great way to start in lettering, with clear explanations and many examples.
What a friendly, unintimidating book! It's just gorgeous to sit down and look through. I'm happy that the author explains that lettering is drawing, not writing. And she encourages tracing as practice. I'm so glad I bought this book and am already practicing. What a friendly, unintimidating book! It's just gorgeous to sit down and look through.

The lettering choices were okay. I did like the various suggested mediums and project ideas that you can do with the lettering.
