Synopsis:
Book is in excellent condition, we removed the label of previous owner which left a slight shadow of adhesive.
Synopsis: In an age so familiar with computer-generated lettering, people are returning to the flowing qualities of hand lettering in an attempt to achieve a more personal effect. Satwinder, through his own love of the form, hopes to inspire even the novice as he takes the reader back to the basic concepts of understanding form. The use of tracing paper overlays helps to show precisely how letters are composed. Full colour throughout emphasizes the painterly properties of lettering. A section on experimental work, including contemporary examples, follows an exploration of the history of calligraphy, the use of colour, writing tools and paper qualities.
