Project 365: Week 25

This week for my Project 365 you may notice I have done things a little differently. You won’t see my daily photos of the kids (sorry Mom!) Instead, I wanted to share a new creative project I have recently started.

For the past few years I have wanted to incorporate hand-lettering into my artwork but haven’t made the time to learn this art form. I have always loved handwriting and love seeing all the amazing hand-lettered art pieces that so many talented artists create. For these reasons, I recently started up a hand-lettering challenge on Instagram that will allow me to learn the basics of hand-lettering. I am a beginner and must start with the basics. So far I have learned so much!

For the challenge I am to write a letter of the alphabet each day starting with the letter “A”. I just completed the first week of the challenge and thought I would post the photos that I took each day. I would love for you to follow me on this creative journey on Instagram @lauren.runyan.

If you would like to learn the basics of hand-lettering and learn more about the challenge, I would encourage you to check out it out here. Along with this challenge I found another creative community over on Facebook that has been a great encouragement to learn hand-lettering. It is an art and hand-lettering class through Dawn Nicole Designs. If interested in joining this community you can check out her page here.
