Alphabet Doodles

I'm always playing around in my art journal. ALWAYS.

While I was browsing tattoos on Pinterest (yes, I'm in the market for a new tattoo - my biggest one yet!), I started thinking that I would like to develop my own typeface one day.


I started playing around in my art journal, and got to some shapes that I really like.



I really like the a, the l, the e, and the x. 

Not crazy about the d, the w, the f and the t. 

I had fun with colour, too - can you tell?

      Hi Tammy! I used these pens from Staedler: http://www.dickblick.com/products/staedtler-marsgraphic-3000-duo-watercolor-brush-markers/

      They're really cool because they have two tips - a felt tip and a brush tip. Super fun.
      (I got the full set, unopened, at a yard sale for two bucks last summer!)
