Play every day. (minimalist)

Another postcard!

a little reminiscent of the minimalist block letters

Stumble & Dance.

Found this quote and thought it perfect for all my lettering & art mistakes!

"If you stumble, make it a part of your dance."

Before pic.

 

marker play

I started playing with my markers again a while back, but found them boring (and frustrating!) as they're not as sharp and are drying up. But I also still had a bit of fun with them (which is also the "fun" challenging part).

And I used a few recently for some Snail Mail (see blog too:  https://snailmailingmadness.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2026-04-11T12:31:00-07:00&max-results=7 )

Varied color and styles alpha (actually, this is my version of the Brody caps)

Mixed alpha with 2 markers: big altered uncial and Romans.

Another varied color and styles alpha

tried emulating a piece on Pinterest but different words.

original poem (My Favorite Self)

thick K Caps and script writing.

More brush work (practice)

I'm SO glad I found out about Yves pointed brush class! I love his work and he explains things so wonderfully that I feel as though I just might get the hang of this tool at some point!

Here are some practice sheets (excuse the scratch paper!)

Mediation variations

fantastic

adventures (am proud of my a's!) -- he makes it easy to emulate his work! (even though he encourages us to each find our own styles)

personality (had fun with these)

and just misc.

autopilot, vulnerable, (misspelled word and not sure what it was suppose to be)
