Wednesday, July 15 |3D Effects in Color Workshop

In this workshop led by master sign painterhttp://fontfeed.com/archives/first-typecon2009-rhythm-images/John Downer">John Downer, attendees explored 3D effects in the realm of hand-drawn and hand-painted lettering. They learned how to create highlights – bevels, blends and blurs – outlines, shades, and miscellaneous outline/shade combinations … all without a computer! Australian http://fontfeed.com/archives/first-typecon2009-rhythm-images/James Yencken posted a very nice photographic impression of the workshop in his http://fontfeed.com/archives/first-typecon2009-rhythm-images/TypeCon Atlanta set. Below is but a selection – make sure to check his full set. And also the http://fontfeed.com/archives/first-typecon2009-rhythm-images/photographic report of http://fontfeed.com/archives/first-typecon2009-rhythm-images/TypeCon2008 on the James Jenkins website while you're at it.
