1st u might need a baseline
if u want inclination, draw lines that will guide u, for consistency of the angle
Start with a word. What meaning or feeling do u want to convey? By knowing the history of the fonts u can make a better decision. By understanding the characteristics of the letters & the styles u can use that to reinforce your message.
we r meditating
We had to try writing it in different ways + exploring different styles until we find the right one.
Everybody was absorbed in the drawing.
Once you find the style, you can make it bigger + work on the details.
Work on the spacing, play with rhythm.
The aim is the style you choose to reinforce the message of the word.
