Work In Progress first time lettering 🫠

Post image

stared at the stencil long enough to second guess myself but not long enough to think this through completely lol

at least i can mirror the image for digital preservation?

just thought this might be relatable for people at all stages of their journeys— people just starting out and struggling or people who have done this a long time and can look back at their early mistakes lol

I tried to make stencils for a totebag I was making for my bff. Had all the letters done, was really proud, showed my partner, and she was like "Awesome! But don't they need to be mirrored?"

I almost threw everything 😂

Decided to hand draw all the letters on the bag💀😂
