Hand-letter the name of your hometown in monoline style.

ASSIGNMENT

Design a piece of monoline lettering signifying where you're from (could be your hometown, neighborhood, city, or country).

Remember, monoline lettering has uniform line thickness throughout the pen stroke — no varying thicks and thins like traditional calligraphy.

Feel free to use whatever tools you'd like! Sharpie, Krink, etc. I've listed my favorite markers in the Resources section below.

Also, cheap folders are a great way to create a shiny surface in your finished piece.

DELIVERABLE
