Hand Lettering in Procreate: Tricks & Tips to Improve Your Lettering

The colors on the 2022 version are lovely change too. Love to see the different versions.

Thank you! Along with my lettering, my use of color has definitely improved since 2018 LOL. These are the kinds of things you don't typically notice until you see new and old work side by side :)

Beautiful work, Gia! I really like the way you frame your lettering. This new class looks great!

Thanks so. much Ira - I really appreciate it! :)

Here is my original artwork from 2018:

I found issues with tilted letters, inconsistent spacing, forced ligatures, incorrect letterform structure and shaky lines &amp; curves.
