I’ve been participating in the #StylingTheAlphabet challenge which is a more loose online challenge with no real deadlines, its just multiple iterations of the same letter til’ you get through all 26! Plan to do 16 of each letter… That’s a good basis from which to start.

Its always fun and profitable to do these drills because it FORCES you to think about letter construction BEYOND your normal “go tos.” We all have things that we normally do when its time to construct a certain letter.

Styling the alphabet not only makes you think outside the box, but if you DO come up with something interesting, you can take the next step of deriving an entire alphabet based on that solution. These drills help you to be creative and unique. Its all about making sure your work is standing out… Give it a try…
