Letter "R" design study
Hand-drawn type has always held a special place in my heart. I consider it one of, if not, the most powerful of all the tools we have for visual communication. Even with as long as written languages have been in existence, the art of typography continues to evolve. Type design will continue to be revisited, analyzed and improved upon for as long as people are still reading.
Recently a friend of mine, Samantha Warren commented on Twitter regarding her fascination and obsession with the uppercase "R". I decided it would be a fun little exercise to single out that one character and explore some of my own variations. I went ahead and vectorized a small portion of my sketches to see what they'd look like polished up.

I like the last "R" it makes me think of Penguins. Not the Pittsburgh Kind.
