For the follow-up to her Modern Lettering, calligrapher
extraordinaire Rebecca Cahill Roots has created a stunning, practical,
and contemporary guide to lettering with brushes and brush pens—
complete with a sumptuous selection of projects.
In this
quirky and relatable guide, Rebecca Cahill Roots explores the various
ways brushes and brush pens can make exquisite letterforms. She helps
beginners crack the basics of this beautiful, free-spirited style that
has become increasingly popular as a way of expressing individuality and
personality. Roots divides the book by type of media: each section
contains exercises to help you become accustomed to using the pen or
brush, an alphabet and a set of numbers to copy, and an example quote in
the lettering style. The techniques range from lettering with
watercolor or gouache to working with metallic brush pens, and Roots
provides traceable practice pages, advice on photographing your
lettering, and sample layouts for journals and greeting cards
throughout.
