I've always loved the letter Q. See for yourself:
I've been contemplating a regular drawing project since wrapping up the 21-Day Drawing Challenge this summer. No better time than the present! My hope is to update this blog daily with a doodle, some lettering work or some other tidbit from the tip of my pen.

Doodle 33 - The Letter P
Much like the letter K, I've written this letter thousands of times (thanks to my maiden name). I made a couple of bolder moves with some of these, but I like them.

Doodle 32 - The Letter O
O in all of it's simplicity was a bit challenging. Taking cues from various typefaces and handlettering samples I observed from my zillions of posts on Pinterest, I managed to fill up the page with no trouble!

Doodle 28 - The Letter K
A letter close to my heart. A letter I've written millions of times. A letter that can be kind of a pain in the ass. Still fun though :)

Doodle 26 - Intermission
I haven't had a chance to shoot the rest of the letters from my lettering exercise, so here's a doodle I did using my new Speedball calligraphy pens & ink. I bought a set a couple weeks ago and I've had a blast playing with them!

Doodle 25 - The Letter I
The simplicity of the I made it difficult to come up with so many variations. Much like the C, I looked around at various other examples of the letter on Pinterest and had a little easier time filling the page.

Doodle 24 - The Letter H
I like the letter H. This was an interesting one to work on. IT's funny - when I was working on the pencil sketches, Elizabeth (my 6-year-old) came over and said, "Mom, that doesn't look much look an H..."
Sheesh!
Sheesh!

Doodle 23 - The Letter G
G was a tricky one - so many ways to create both the upper and lowercase versions! I also did it between coats of paint on a project for my husband out in the garage. Inhaling the fumes may have added another degree of difficulty... :)
