Here is some custom type I did recently for a women's retreat at Lake Aurora Camp in Lake Wales, Florida. The speaker for the event is Pam Gillaspie and she uses a lot of chocolate imagery on her book covers and in her talks so the camp wanted to run with that theme. I tried to mimic the look of something you might see on a chocolate bar with my custom typography. I really like the look of hand lettered type and enjoy doing it even though I'm not great at it. With a little help from my Creative Director at work we pulled off a nice piece that I'm proud of.
New Custom Typography
I just completed a new typography piece that is being used by SKIT Theatre to promote their next shows. They will perform two short and unrelated plays each night and the evening is geared toward families with young children. When I heard the title I immediately thought of a sign for a theatre so I went to work. Little did I know how time consuming it would be to evenly place all the lights within the sign and make sure the pieces of the sign had a uniform thickness so that the lights would look right inside every piece. It was challenging but I think it was worth the extra effort.
I also just added this to the Typography portfolio on my main site.
