Hand-Lettering Techniques for Objects

“You have reached the end of the course! Thank you very much for accompanying me on this adventure. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Remember that the techniques I taught you can be used for different projects. So you don't have to do exactly the same as me. Use what you learned to make your own creations! Before I say goodbye, I want to show you an example of how I would like to see your project: Knowing the letters Start by warming up your hand, creating an alphabet of capital letters with a brush tip (this will help you familiarize yourself with the anatomy of the letters).

The monogram Draw a monogram with the initials of your name, choosing the letters that best fit your personality. You can use any of the alphabets that I leave you for reference, and remember to pay special attention so that the spacing of the letters is balanced. The technique Select the technique that interests you the most and check what size you want your letters to be on the object. Next, adjust the size of the monogram and transfer the drawing to the chosen surface, with a tracing paper. Then apply the steps of the technique you have chosen, and practice this process as many times as necessary until you are satisfied with the result. Finally, take cute photos of your object, making sure there is enough natural light to capture the glow, and share your creation. Share your project by clicking "Create your project". In addition to the photographs of each stage of the process, share a short text in which you talk about your experience in carrying it out. I will give you feedback as soon as possible. However, I ask you to be patient, as it may take a while for me to reply to you. While you wait, I invite you to exchange ideas and advice with the rest of your classmates. See ya!”
