2024-04-19: Lettering Day
Daily Log⭐ One line for 2024-04-01: I spent the whole day doing lettering
while feeling sick, and to end the day, I listened to Taylor Swift's new
album "Tortured Poet Department."
I planned to make
a wall art for my room using a line from Taylor Swift's song "Innocent."
The lyric goes, "Today is never too late to be brand new," and I love
it. I thought it would be nice to have that reminder every day, so
that's the quote I went with.
Started off thinking it would be straightforward, something I could write on paper, but it turned into a full-on art project!
It feels like going from zero to hero in just one day! LOL.
The Process
The first draft trying to get the hierarchy done
Switched into a hat!
Finally became an illustrative style.
The phone wallpaper version!
I am proud of the design, although it's not fully completed yet as I still need to tweak some letters.
I'll use it as my phone wallpaper for a bit before I give it the final touches, which might never come, lol.
P.S. I might jot down the whole process on my lettering box at some point. I've been getting into practicing lettering, so I could start doing some commissions like lettering people's names or phrases.
