Synopsis

Riding the wave of lettering enthusiasm that’s only grown over the past year, this new workbook by a master artist with 170k Instagram followers will be 2018’s go-to lettering book for instruction and inspiration. Chrystal Elizabeth’s unique brush lettering features bright, bold colours blended together, often with a rainbow of colors in a single line which gives the finished quotes a multi-dimensional look that pops off the page. In this workbook, Chrystal reveals her special techniques to take readers’ lettering to the next level. With 40 tutorials, readers learn step by step how to recreate her gorgeous designs or make them their own. Featuring the popular format and features of bestselling Hand Lettering for Relaxation, this book includes high quality art paper, step-by-step illustrated instruction, space for practice and bordered blank pages for drawing final designs. Modern brush lettering is created freeform with swooping, cursive lines inspired by calligraphy, whereas hand lettered designs tend to have a more structured form, often drawn first in pencil. Because of its spontaneous nature, brush lettering can be more difficult than hand lettering, but this book breaks down the techniques and makes it easy! Both beginners and skilled artists will be thrilled to find this book overflowing with motivational quotes, new techniques and one-of-a-kind artwork. This book has 40 illustrated design tutorials.
