Lisa's N - T












Here are the next two rows of my alphabet, arranged relative to one another on the 49-square grid I've chosen as the final format (I'll save the complete view for when the alphabet is finished). My favorites of this set are 'Q' & 'R' (which I realized looks like a little 'r' if you rotate it ninety degrees counterclockwise...I considered positioning it so, but decided to keep all the letters uppercase). I also like the negative space between the 'R' & the 'S'.

Only six weeks/six letters to go until we reach the half-way point of the year. Filling up this grid has served as an interesting 'calendar'―a new way to show the year's progress. I'm excited about the next alphabet, and hope that the dot/pixel constraint makes narrowing down the possibilities a bit easier this time!

  4. Thank you for your comments! It's been such a fun project - and the result is so different to what I had envisioned (which makes the process even more interesting, I think). I am already looking forward to the next alphabet... Thanks to all of you for the inspiration.
