The brief
I wanted a graffiti throw-up font for my own work. The ones out there looked like basic bubble letters with no style. Once I started using it, clients began asking for their names, words and business names in it. It took me back to high school, when classmates would ask me to draw their names in graffiti in my notebook.
Process
Every letter was sketched in Procreate and kept consistent with the rest. The hard part was making the letters flow as a word, not just look good on their own. The font was built in FontForge.
