Are you ready to learn how to create groovy retro styled hand lettering in Procreate? Join my course and I'll teach you my step-by-step process for illustrating funky 70s inspired lettering characterized by fluid shapes, decorative elements, and bold colors.

Retro lettering is fun and fluid and is an artistic approach that combines a lot of illustrated motifs. It’s also very loose, not as rigid as other lettering styles which makes this course perfect for beginners! Retro styled lettering is also super popular right now appearing in art prints, surface patterns, apparel, etc, so why not start incorporating it into your art licensing portfolio pieces or Print on Demand Shop!

In this course I’ll demonstrate how to illustrate three distinct, 70s inspired lettering styles: Block Lettering, Bubble Lettering, and Chunky Script Lettering. I’ll share my process of how to

  • Research and gather inspiration for each lettering style
  • Sketch out a balanced composition with lettering and illustrations
  • Ink your piece to achieve clean lines 
  • Color your illustration using a retro limited color palette
  • Add unique texture and details to really enhance your finished piece
