Description

This workbook is a perfectionism-free zone for breaking the rules and expressing your unique self through lettering art!

The workbook for aspiring letterers who want to let go of perfectionism and follow their dreams. As a schoolgirl in Vietnam and later in online lettering classes, Huyen Dinh was always told to perfect her penmanship. Instead, she started embracing her own imperfect style-with squiggly lines, cheeky messages, and candy colors. Now it's your turn! This guided workbook invites you to break the rules, embrace your ugly sketches, and discover your own special lettering style. Along the way, Dinh offers inspiration, encouragement, and tips. And once you've filled this sketchbook, you can use your new lettering skills to tell your personal story, support a cause you care about, or decorate your tote bags and sneakers!
