"Alabama the Beautiful" is on every sign entering the state of Alabama. It represents the state's importance of natural heritage. I think its pretty beautiful here, definitely what to try and captue some of that with this project....

This is my selected sketch, things are subject to change...

Into the computer

1st thing I didn't like was the right decender of the letter "A" start of "B" looked odd. Also my composition seemed off and there was too much white space after Alabama.

I felt this composition was working much better and I descided to use a script "the" instead of creating a sans serif.

I played around with some stroke weights, but over all I think I like the one solid weight better.

The "B" appears not to be on the same angle as everything else and some letters look really janky.
