I'm taking an online class called Rennie Revisited with Kathy Milici. Actually, I'm watching the recorded videos of the class as I was not able to attend the live session.
Rennie Revisited explores the architectural printing of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, a 19th./early 20th century architect, designer, and artist.
For practice, I played with variations of the letter "T" and also variations of the word "tea" along with trying out some ligatures (connections) of the letters.
Printing done on graph paper using a .08 Micron Pigma Pen.
Now, time for a cuppa as I watch more of the classroom instruction before beginning another practice session.
Drop by hosts, Bleubeard and Elizabeth’s blog to find out what the rest of the T gang is up to. If you want to play, include a beverage or beverage container in your post. Don’t forget to link your blog from Bleubeard and Elizabeth’s page.
I like MacKintosh's style, and I bet it was fun playing around with these fonts. I really like the 2 on the far right.And the tea word with a dot for the center line of the E. Have a super T day, and enjoy this day. Do you have sun or clouds?
ReplyDeleteFont is used for typography. Done by hand is called a Hand or Script. The sun is just starting to come out. The last warm day for the week. Enjoy!
DeleteI've never heard of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, but I love the wonderful ways you created the word tea. Brilliant. I have those same pens, too. Not sure I have a .08 one though. Thanks for sharing these with us for T this Tuesday, dear CJ.
