Hand Lettered Wedding Signage

Here are some finishes from a lettering project for a wedding. The client gave no direction, so I did what I usually end up doing in these situations and kind of watched as the ideas took form on the screen. I can't really explain it how it happens. I don't sketch out ideas and rarely look at inspiration when I'm working on something personal. I know, I know - I'm supposed to be getting all romantic and shit about my influences and inspiration so I sound legit. But more often than not, that's not how it works for me. It's like I draw upon all the things I already have floating around in my brain and come up with something that surprises even me. If only I could do this for most jobs! Anyway, this was so much fun to work on. (The client was very happy with them, BTW)

Francie!

I'm not obsessed with my delectable, teeny-tiny, superstar of a chihuahua.
No, not at all.
Those of you who've met her will totally understand.

The Sketchbook Project 2012

I can't tell you how many people email me about this whenever it's happening.
Late last year I decided to order a book and get to work.
You have to pick a theme to loosely base your work around.
I chose: In Ten Minutes, because that's 9 minutes more than I like to spend on a drawing. Zing!
But seriously folks, I just like to put it down and move on.
I'm posting some selected images here. For the entire book check out this link.
