new series! bc i am amused at the amount of bitchy and mean comments come out of the mouths of me and my friends, i decided i will be doing an ongoing set of digital pieces using these quotes. i haven’t done too much with my SPIFFY hand lettering lately, so i thought this was a good idea. i thought the name was even more clever. but i always think i’m more brilliant than others seem to. hahaha. enjoy! click to enlarge 
*for the safety of the persons behind the quotes that will be used for the sake of art, i will not be disclosing the speaker’s information.

our assisgnment was to take take text (a narrative, poem, song, etc…) and create a 18×24 poster incorporating text, illustration, type as image, and/or illustration as type.
i chose to use the lyrics to the song “Parentheses” by The Blow.
::update:: i also wanted to add that we had the choice to either use a typeface or do it by hand. i chose to do it by hand because i have issues with being fully happy with any font i choose for anything. i originally had pieces drawn out in pencil that i was going to ink and scan… but i ended up just doing everything straight into the comp using my wacom tablet.
