t y p e f a c e

The typeface I created, "Speckle," is a collaboration of small organic shapes and lines. Each letter is hand drawn and scanned into InDesign. I then edited the contrast between lights and darks and edited shapes that were out of place when viewed close up on the computer screen. I paired "Speckle" with American Typewriter Light, designed by Joel Kaden and Tony Stan, because of its curves and organic feel. The background pages are watercolor paintings edited in photoshop to represent speckle spots. This helps to push the idea of Speckle visually for the viewer's eye.

Surfing-my sister
I love this picture because it reminds me of this past summer surfing with my sister. We took a bunch of creative pictures one day on the beach and i ended up liking this one alot. I love how the picture is in sepia tone, it is probably my favorite coloring for pictures.
