Flourishing exercises

Flourishing exercises - student project

Here's some pics of a flourishing exercise I did as a part of this class.

I started by writing the quote without any flourishes, no descenders, no crossbars. I scanned that element.

Then I placed the quote in my layout, and went back to write my flourishes so that I could place them just how I wanted them.

In the end, I shrunk one flourish to fit it better in the layout and this is what I settled on!

I'll keep adding my projects to this post!
