"It's a lot easier to criticise than it is to create"
@petermckinnon
Creation is a struggle. Something that takes hard work and persistence. Especially when others take the easy option to criticise your work. Keep your head down and know your work matters.

I didn't do calligraphy at school. I didn't draw letters as a child. I still can't draw people or animals or even a car. I spent 34 years trying different things until I found calligraphy. By trying & doing is the only way to find it.

This is a really interesting book. It looks at what goes into the design and research of props for movies. Like signage, maps, letters and even coming up with made-up brands. I feel this would be a great career path for a lettering artist.
