Watercolor Lettering: Block (Sans Serifs)

Go bold! San-serif lettering sheds all the ornate trappings of other letter styles, lending itself to a fresh new vibe. It can be big and in your face, personal and loose, thick and sexy or clean and structured. 

In these 42 minutes, you'll learn how to approach sans-serif hand-lettering in several styles:

• Uniform marker line
• Casual handwriting in a dry brush quality
• Brush lettering with ink
• Inky, bold letters
• Watercolor freehand
• Watercolor block lettering
• Bonus section with lots of styles and tips

Fact: clients have asked Amarilys to replace otherwise-beautiful lettering for a sans-serif style that's more laid-back and casual. Since understanding those design nuances, Amarilys has filled her portfolio with more samples and styles in this letter language.  

Gain the understanding and confidence to run with your letters--naked of serif anchors or curly flourishes--and reach a market begging for raw, personable communication.

P.S. Also in this class: a brief history of this font style--great for impressing your friends over a drink! 

This class is the second in a series of Watercolor Lettering classes by Amarilys.
