Just listening to oh idk 20+ SF kids as young as 5 beg our dysfunctional school board not to fire their teachers, reading support specialists, nurses, creative writing, esl, counselors etc. My daughter was one of them. 💔 #SFUSD #MissionHigh #SaveOurSchools

If you don't know Wanda's work- that's shocking! Because she's the best! Oh and edit- I didn't mean to say she was 'the first' to do author-illustrator/lettering combo but that she pushed that forward quite a lot. More on @Moonbow.books lnkd.in/gqqXz9R8 #wandagag #millionsofcats #newtypeface

Have you tried drawing with one of these? With the round tip? It's grand.

The 2nd image here is where this idea began.

Focusing on the things I can do and aiming for one or two things daily, this one took only 5 min and this app made it extra easy

Hi there 👋 I wanted to show you my WIP typeface and specimen, it's inspired by the children's book author #Wandagag and the lettering of the Vienna Secession artists, specifically Berthold Loeffler. More on them soon #typography #newtypeface #womenintype

Hi! I'm Martha Sue and this is my dog Rammy. I'll be sharing my type design, illustration and fine art here and I'm going to try something new- post about all three. Maybe even share videos of myself talking! 😬 It'll be pretty random but more authentic. Starting over is fun!
