so much better than alyce's. toothier paper made all the difference in the world. i'd like to do a bunch more of these, but, all y'all would get bored and storm my studio with your pitchforks. did anyone hear the big controversy about the 3 pronged pitchfork in the painting, Americn Gothic? gosh, i love a good pitchfork debate.
as usual, i started adding dots.
that bird looks like it is falling over backwards. don't you think it needs to be more upright?
ReplyDeleteI agree ~ and the bird's beak is opened as he yells "Oh no!"
ReplyDeleteI like the addition of the dots on these letters. And although I'd love to see your studio, it wouldn't be with a pitchfork in hand. The more of these you do, the more letters we have to put together an exemplar. ;-)
good idea alyce, i will work on an exemplar
ReplyDeletei like the envelopes that have a pangram on them
in the mean time
this font looks a lot like the lettering - just add some curls

What Font is this?
ReplyDeleteI do not have a particular font. To get some general ideas you could look at Caslon Openface and Calamity Jane at MyFonts.com. I don't know where to find any fonts that have alternative characters with the big swooping curls. I am sure they are out there --- you could try clicking on the feature on MyFonts.com that says [More fonts like this one] Also, dafont.com has a lot of fun fonts and you might find something a lot like this there.
