i can't remember if i penciled this or not. sometimes i like to just draw a name without penciling. making yourself think about where the negative space should be is a good exercise. and in many ways, i like it even better than lettering the name. it is pretty easy to read. and it is an instant design. you are not thinking about anything except some basic shapes. so after you get the shapes down, then you go back and discover where the interesting parts are. i think it is completely fool proof.



but i would have to have an entire room full of fools to test my theory. and sadly, i never have a room full of fools. i've thought of advertising: a class for fools.
but i don't think anyone would show up.
it's funny...i teach a class called art for the intimidated,
and it is very popular.
people are not intimidated to admit that they are intimidated.
fools? i guess they are blissfully ignorant.
