“I find it endlessly fascinating how much information you can convey with lettering. Take a look at a film poster or fairground sign - the style that’s been used gives it an identity and coveys a mood or message indirectly to the observer, no matter what the word actually says. What I love the most about drawing letters is the diversity of different styles that can be used to do this.” —Kate Forrester, Choosing a style.
