Love Your Letters: Communicate Visually with Words

i love this!! it's so balanced!! and love how you got your monogram/signature in there!!

Pretty cool, my favorite is the linear version

Hey Joel, good to see you in this class man! this is looking really nice! I think you have really balanced everything nicely, and has a nice hand drawn feel to it, like all your other pieces! love seeing the dot grid being put to good use as well. I think you have the idea of working with flourishes as well! Keep up the good work as always!

Thanks Neil! I'm trying to make this more refined and hope to make it really smooth in Illustrator. Your work is so inspiring.

Looking good, Joel! Just like all your other work. :D

I really enjoy how this feels like a complete shape. You've done a nice job creating the forms around the type to balance the composition. Nice work!

This is lovely. I love the flourishes around all the words and that quote is great!

I'm now trying the width tool in illustrator and hope I pick this up easier. I've got the basic structure of the letters done and now have to add stroke contrast.
