Lettering para murais de giz

WOW!! Totally FABU!! (fabulous) How do you preserve it? Do you spray some kind of coating over it so that no one can wipe it off by mistake or on purpose? I am trying to find that chalk you mention. I live in the US

Hi Shelley! Thank you very much! No, I didn't spray anything to fix this board, because prices are not so stable in our country :) and the board is hanged quite high, so there's not a big chance of occasional wiping. But that's a great idea to spray something on top of chalk to keep it there. I've heard some artists use hair spray.

Minsk, Belarus. Nemiga 5. right across the street from McDonalds:)

Great Job! Did you use chalk markers or is this all straight chalk?

Thanks, Kevin! Yes, it's a straight chalk. The brand is Giotto. "Giotto Robercolor". It's made from champagne chalk. It's very durable and bright.


Отличная работа! Красивый леттеринг)

I love the mix of different hands (styles)!

Wow, looks great! Calm me down, you had experience in lettering before? (not chalk, but I talk about stylish lettering) You are genius anyway! :)

Oh thank you Angelica! I fell in love with lettering and calligraphy about 6-8 months ago, so yes, I have some experience. It helped me a lot :) But this is my first commercial work actually. All my previous stuff was just-for-fun doodeling and exercising.

It is super cool to earn some money for something so exciting! I think you've done excellent job and it's just beginning. This boards in caffee and restaurants looks so amazing and charming, and now they becomes to appear everywhere.
6-8 months seems to be not so long, you inspired me! Thank you for sharing your work and story. I fell in love with lettering few month ago :)

This looks fantastic! I can't believe this was your first time with chalk - it's beautiful! Keep up the great work!

Thank you, Lauren!!! See what a great teacher you are! I fell in love with chalk lettering. This is so much fun!

Wow, there's a lot of work in this. Looks great! I didn't know you could get such bright colours on a chalkboard!

Thank you, Snoussi!
Actually I've spent about 24 hours on that. But sketching and training at home on my old black kitchen table took much much more time :)

I have used italian chalk called "Giotto Robercolor". It has fantastic quality, it's not dusty, and yeah, it's quite bright too! 

It was my first experience working with chalk, and I enjoyed every second of it!
