About This Workshop
Skillshare teacher Gia Graham
Hand lettering is a versatile skill to add to your creative arsenal. If you’re a graphic designer, it can add a unique, personal touch to your layouts; if you’re a crafter, it can be a great addition to handmade projects; or if you’re an artist who typically works with traditional mediums, it can be a great way to dip your toes into the digital world. In this workshop, you’ll join two digital lettering artists for a journey through concepting, designing, and finalizing your own lettered creations. You’ll need access to Procreate. All levels welcome.
