To continue my hand lettering practice, I drew this Seinfeld quote, “These pretzels are making me thirsty”, with bounce letters.
Season 3, episode 11 “The Alternate Side”
This drawing is inspired by a laurel wreath and the flora of the Redwood forest where we vacationed. The top half is a grouping of coniferous things, found higher in the trees, and the bottom half is ferns, flowers, and berries found lower to the ground.
During our summer vacation, I made a collection of drawings inspired by the flora around our rental cabin in the northern California Redwood forest. So, inspired by the all-over pattern project from the Skillshare class Drawing pens: make it simple, I drew my own version since the first time I mimicked the instructor’s version.
Inspired by the Skillshare class Drawing pens: make it simple class, I sketched out the plants that were around the cabin we rented for our summer vacation. There was such a variety in the northern California Redwood forest, especially compared to what I’m used to seeing in the Arizona desert. And I wanted to do my own version of a flora wreath with lettering inside since the first time I mimicked the instructor’s version.
And of course, I had “This Land is Your Land” running through my mind:
From the red wood forest to the Gulf Stream waters
This land was made for you and Me
This year our summer vacation was in a cabin in the Redwoods of northern California. We chose the spot because it’s remote and off the grid, which gave us lots of time to dream about building our own home in the woods some day.
I took the opportunity for quiet time without TV or internet to work on my lettering and drawing skills. Talking about our home in the woods inspired me to letter the phrase “house in the woods” and see how I could experiment with different styles and compositions.
