This is a small scratchboard that I drew a long time ago as a commission for someone’s wedding anniversary. It seemed funny and goofy at the time. I’m using it as an exercise here in working with the text. I put it against a big black frame and used the new font I just purchased called Nauticus Script Bold. It just seemed to fit the subject. I think this works and I’m getting encouraged again. So maybe I won’t quit exploring text.
I love the way the spaces seem to work together. It is intriguing. The words are a pun on “your wish is my command”. My eye keeps going back and forth between the very even spacial treatment in my command to the wider spacing in your kiss. I did not adjust the kerning. I need to think about this more.
The very big image is a new bold try for me. Here it is on a product.
