So you thought typography history was boring?

A selection of creative drawings

“Typography doesn’t exist in a history vacuum”

I’ve started a new online series based on the extremely popular activity from my in-person workshops called Typography Life Drawing. This article is a celebration of the results and feedback I’ve received so far, which you can see here are wonderful. A selection of the work is featured here or click here to visit the growing gallery.

This is an innovative new way to learn about type history through drawing, storytelling and music.

“It’s 3 x half-hour sessions a week but the sessions are recorded so you can do them in your own time. Brilliant!” Jan Lewis

There’s still plenty of time for you to join in. With a new topic each week you can just join in for the weeks that interest you or sign up for the whole series!
