Includes Step-By-Step Instructions and Tips & Tricks
Lettering is a creative discipline in its own right and it's so tricky to get good results. During this workshop you will learn two key techniques which are useful for sketching and painting signage with stunning results.
You will learn a 'quick draw' method (which is especially useful for recording lettering in travel journals) and a slower, more mindful (but wonky) technique for sketching signs. This is great if you have more time and would like to work on a more 'designed' sketchbook layout.
As always, I will share with you my cheats, tricks and travel journal pages to help inspire your own creations.

This note is a very big thankyou for the workshops. I am having such a good time with them. I think the recorded version works best for me - they are so inspirational and I love being able to rewind a little when I can’t quite get something or when I want to pause and study or reflect.
I’ll be doing more of the workshops and have so many ideas for how to use them in my life. They really are helping me to re-find my inner creative.
Lucia Leyfield
Lucia is an artist, letterer and teacher who loves creating illustrated journals and artist books. She has become known for a unique and creative approach to her work which has been described as 'quietly joyful...a nostalgic, moving and profound ...a treasure chest of creativity and inspiration'
Her journals and sketchbooks, which record life as it happens, conversations, inspirations and experiments, have become works of art in their own right. Many of Lucia's sketchbooks are handmade with a range of papers and combine traditional and experimental hand lettering with watercolour, collage and mixed media sketches.
She is inspired by a diverse range of things: the old, rusty and wonky, worn architectural patinas, ancient diagrams, aged buildings, old books and ephemera, explorers' sketchbooks and vintage field guides.
