The assignment was to create a monogram out of a series of pieces affixed to a grid. We could rotate the pieces, but we couldn’t move them off of the grid. It was a way for us to learn how to work with the pieces we’re given.
I wanted to emulate a brush script since at the time I enjoyed brush script quite a bit. It was a little difficult with the pieces we had, and it wasn’t the easiest to smooth everything out. I also made sure to link the different letters because it’d seem more like cursive, but I also made the serifs sharp because I got a caligraphic feel from them.
