This headline was made before and during a late 2006 holiday trip to Barcelona. I tried to get all letters done with one line but of course the holes in some letters are separate. Made with ball-point pens.

Handmade Lettering 3
Sir Spend-A-Lot is a repeating headline I'm using while traveling to keep track of how much money I'm spending. Since these pages can be in active use for more than a week they naturally need nice headlines. This one is from early 2008 trip to London and Paris. Made with gel and ball-point pens.

Handmade Lettering 2
On the weekly work meetings I seem to get lots of lettering done. I trust someone else to take care of actual notes, of course, and concentrate only on the headlines.
"Palzu" means a meeting in sort-of-finnish. Made with felt-tip-, ballpoint- and silver gel pens.

Handmade Lettering 1
I'm starting a series of handmade lettering images scanned from my sketchbook and notes.
The images will not be cleaned up too much to maintain the handmade look I personally like about these.
This text is a random note from the sketchbook for no real purpose. The flat letterforms looked like they could be "ribbonized" so I tested that. Made with red felt-tip and ball-point pens.
