POINTED PEN
HERMANN KILIAN
RETRO CAPITALS
WITH SABINE TACK
This fun and quirky style that can't go unnoticed!
What you'll learn:
- Full alphabet in Kilian's unique style
- Alteration of letterforms to create variations
- Understanding the design process and choices
- Examination of Kilian's works with an emphasis on his letterform variations and design choices
- Manipulation of letterforms as subordinate factor in design priority
- Special characters and how to invent our own that we don't find in Kilian's works
Sabine teaches the letterforms using first a pencil and then a pointed pen. You could use a brush pen, paintbrush, colored pencils or a ruling pen... whatever tool is more your jam!
