Practicing waterbrush lettering

Posted on by Amy Lamp in art and design

I’m binge-watching lettering classes on Skillshare and two that I love are Waterbrush Lettering Essentials and Bounce Letters: Adding Character to your Hand Lettering with Teela Cunningham. To practice these skills, I’m writing Bosco’s name…over and over and over.
