Thank you for this course content! I had no clue posture played such a important role when hand lettering. I have been "attempting" hand lettering on and off for a few yrs. Just got serious about it and really started experimenting .I have seen SEVERAL ESSENTIAL mistakes I have been making after taking this course. I cant wait to try it out now with the different techniques you taught me.
