soundtrack: Stray Phrases — Donuts Live
I finally got myself new inks and a better pen-holder! *fanfares* Been practicing black-lettering and other types of fancy lettering techniques/styles for a couple of weeks now. I’ve scanned most interesting pages so everyone can check out how cool and fun hand-drawn letters can be!

Those 7 pages are only about 15% of all the experiments that I did within last two weeks since I updated my set. Filled with some random words, mostly coming from music that was playing, a few fun phrases and whatever came into my mind when I dipped the pen into ink bottle…
Since I need more practice, I’m thinking of throwing a drawing session where you can ask me via my facebook page to draw something. Your name, for example, or some clever phrase or quote. Stay tuned!

Back in October 2009 I was commissioned by Nike for a series of t-shirt designs for Nike Football line. I was asked to come up with three hand-drawn illustrations based on soccer teams’ own visual elements and my lettering/custom decorative type. The teams were Manchester United, Juventus & Corinthians Paulista.
I was waiting to post those up for a long time and finally — today is the day! Read full post for the designs and some sketches.

I had an opportunity to work with the Osiris shoes brand this year. I was asked to bring the “Osiris” lettering and corporate logo in the same decorated style. Here’s the result (sketches in pen and pencil are inside the post):

New article @ iLoveTypography brought my attention to this insanely gifted brother from Milan, Italy, who goes under moniker «Bean One». From what I see in his flickr gallery, he’s totally obsessed with letters and calligraphy and I must admit I haven’t seen an artist putting so much passion into every line before. I can barely find words to describe how awesome his stuff is…
Just take a look at those — pictures can say more:



There are some live performances available at Vimeo. Worth watching! He’s also on MySpace ;)
