LETTERS WHICH DEFINE: Part 1

  Lettering has many functions, the most important being communication. Desiring to incorporate the various lettering styles we had practiced like Roman, Poster, Script, Chancery, Legend, and Brush Calligraphy into expressive art forms other than advertising activities, we explored different aspects of employing words. The first is to use words as "definition", and utilizing a variety of character styles, create an arrangement of them describing an idea. Here are some.

  "Faces" describes attributes at different ages using Poster, Legend and Poster Script.
  "Foot" with a nice humerous touch, defines with Legend, Roman, Poster and Script.

Decoratively treated Legend is the major focus in the "Allah" tribute. In pen and script brush other words and symbols repeat the character style.
