Go With the Flow
Handmade Type Design by Brooke Barham
I am fascinated with the effortless beauty of waves because they are simultaneously exciting and calming.
I decided to design a handmade type that incorporated waves and the well known phrase, "Go with the flow" because the saying is a comforting piece of advice that I think encompasses the constant motions of waves.
I created my handmade type in the Procreate app on my iPad.

After transferring my physical sketch into the Procreate program on my iPad and tracing over it, I noticed that the design limited the amount of space that I could use. So, I decided to redesign the background to be more eye-catching and fill up more space.
