Typography has always fascinated me. I can manipulate text to appear as anything I want it to look like. It is a creative freedom that I revel in.
Ever since I learned to write, I worked on perfecting my penmanship: the swoops and curves of cursive, the precision of print writing, the elegance of calligraphy. I began creating my own fonts, turning my words into art.
With the tools I have now in Adobe, there are endless possibilities for what I can do. The art of typography is as masterful as painting, as tedious as sculpting. Text can create images, symbols, or can be an image itself.
The ancient scholars understood the potential of typography, decorating their documents with gold filigree and illustrating their letters with meticulous pen strokes.
Typography is a lost art, one that can not be forgotten.
