Project Description
Let's create a special piece by lettering your own Silhouette using a quote that is meaningful to you! This is a fun project for beginner and experienced letterers alike that can be completed in an afternoon. Use your completed piece as art for you house, a gift for a loved one or just as practice! This project will require basic knowledge/understanding of Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator for overlaying with photography but we will walk through the steps together.
