I'm really excited to release my new online class 'The Golden Secrets of Lettering' on Skillshare.  It's rewarding to be able to share my skills and reach students across the globe where I mostly find hard to go with my workshops.

The concept of this class is based on my Letter Collections  project where I design and send postcards around the globe and will share my making of process with you. Together, we will go through the assignment of creating a piece of lettering for the perfect postcard: from concept, to sketch to digitisation, including tips to add texture and color to your final work.

In this class we will start by training our ‘typographic eye’ by looking at examples of typographic pieces that surround us. I'll show you some theoretical principles to understand the structure of letter shapes and I'll share with you the technique I use to sketch and achieve more extreme, personal and interesting results.

This class is suitable for beginners as well as for those with previous experience who want to go a step forward into the art of lettering and expand their set of creative skills. You'll walk away from this class with a sharper eye when working with typography and essential and practical tools to draw lettering and to guide your own improvement afterwards. After this class, you will see typography in a completely different way.

This makes my online classes available in two languages: English (at Skillshare) and Spanish (at Domestika.org). What's next? A class in german language perhaps?
