Creative Lettering and Beyond: Creative...and Beyond
Autor Gabri Joy Kirkendall, Julie Manwaring, Laura Lavender, Shauna Lynn Panczyszynen Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 noi 2014
Descoperim în Creative Lettering and Beyond un format de tip „paperback” generos, de 144 de pagini, gândit special pentru a fi un hibrid între manual de artă și jurnal de lucru. Ne-a atras atenția calitatea hârtiei care permite utilizarea diverselor instrumente de scris direct pe paginile de exerciții incluse, oferind o rezistență optimă pentru sesiunile lungi de studiu în atelier. Structura interactivă este punctul forte al acestui volum publicat de Quarto Publishing Group USA, Inc., fiind mai mult decât o simplă trecere în revistă a unor fonturi. Observăm o abordare colectivă rară, unde patru artiste — Gabri Joy Kirkendall, Julie Manwaring, Laura Lavender și Shauna Lynn Panczyszyn — își unesc forțele pentru a demistifica arta scrisului de mână. De la formele de bază ale literelor și cursivitate, până la spațiere și aliniere, procesul este unul etapizat. Fanii volumului Mastering Hand-Lettering: Your Practical Guide to Creating and Styling the Alphabet de Mye de Leon vor recunoaște aceeași atenție la detaliile tehnice ale alfabetului, însă aplicată aici într-un context nou, mult mai tactil și aplicat. Ceea ce diferențiază acest titlu din seria Creative...and Beyond este versatilitatea aplicațiilor propuse. Nu ne limităm la hârtie; învățăm cum să transferăm arta literelor pe materiale textile precum inul, pe obiecte ceramice sau cum să transformăm o frază desenată de mână într-un proiect digital pentru felicitări. Tonul este încurajator, iar varietatea stilurilor prezentate — de la caligrafia clasică la „chalk lettering” — oferă resursele necesare pentru ca fiecare cititor să își definească propriul stil vizual.
