About this title

Synopsis

This work covers the principal areas of lettering: calligraphy in the graphic arts, drawing and design, digital letterforms and carving letters in stone and wood. It incorporates the instruction manuals "Creative Lettering", "Carving Letters in Stone and Wood" and "Calligraphy in the Graphic Arts".

From the Back Cover

Creative Lettering Today brings together between its covers a quartet of lettering arts: drawing, calligraphy, carving, and digital lettering.Michael Harvey, an English lettering designer and teacher who has taught often in the Untied States, was already a calligrapher, carver, and type designer, used to drawing every character of a font, when he was commissioned by Adobe Systems to design a typeface. So Harvey moved from the world of hand craftsmanship to that of high technology, and in Creative Lettering Today he demonstrates the full range of techniques - manual and digital - open to those who wish to explore lettering design. Harvey addresses all those who for whatever reason wish to pick up pencil, pen, brush, chisel, or mouse, providing the ideal introduction to the lettering arts. (8 1/4 X 11 1/2, 224 pages, b&w photos, illustrations, diagrams)
