On Instagram in early November 2017, I shared a detailed look at what my Bezier Curves look like for all 26 letters of the alphabet. I worked with various styles in this lowercase offering. My goal was to share a little bit of my process, while at the same time providing material to aid others in their lettering journey. For each letter I also created an outlined version which anyone could save and trace on their own in Illustrator (In fact, feel free to do so now).

I have benefited greatly from others' willingness to share some of the "under the hood" stuff of how they create their letters and I wanted to do the same for the lettering community.

Feel free to right-click and save any of these files to practice on in Illustrator!
