In Mexico we don’t say “I like you”. We say “COMO LA TRAILER” and I think that’s beautiful. • • • #lettering #handlettering #letteringpractice #comolatrailer #mexico #barrio #pink #pinkaesthetic #script #scriptlettering #handtype #designspiration #homwork #50words #handmadefont @50wordsongrey #goodtype @goodtype https://www.instagram.com/p/BhnfmEPFJZ7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1bqhavk3zxxgv
A veces pienso que mis pensamientos se ven así, como queriendo escribir con sentimientos que complican ordenar mi cabeza. me gusta pensar en #Somnifera de @theguadaloops • • • • #theguadaloops #calligraphy #expressivecalligraphy #expressiveart #letrering #brushpen #pinkaesthetic #graphicdesign #designspiration #artdirection #typography #50words #rehab https://www.instagram.com/p/BibQZY1lwvG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=m5omrhya3ljm

Hace poco me invitaron a participar en una exposición sobre “letras mexicanas”. ¿Quien sabe qué es una letra mexicana? Hay demasiadas referencias culturales y gastronómicas sobre México que se volvió complicado representarlo. Amo la ciudad. Vivir en la Ciudad de México es de esos privilegios que me tocó vivir. Las calles se volvieron mi inspiración principal. México más que ser cualquier otra cosa, México es su gente, sus calles, el trabajo de sus habitantes. Mexico es los oficios de la gente, es lo que hacemos en nuestra vida diaria, lo que nos topamos, lo que vivimos. En esta exposición organizada por maestros de la FAD, me tocó hacer la letra D. D de DF Así que me inspire por lo que vemos día a día en las calles, rótulos y publicidad en bardas, esos oficios populares increíbles. Fue un honor para mi participar y me lleno de orgullo al pertenecer a proyectos tan increíbles, cosa que jamás pensé lograr. #lettering #cultivandocartelesyletras @cultivandocartelesyletras @notypositypo • • • #36daysoftype @36daysoftype #36days_d #notypo #fadunam #handlettering #rotulos #mexicocity #designspiration #50words @designspiration @50wordsongrey @hand_type #artdirection #graphicdesign #letterarchive #letterarchive_d @letterarchive @typism #adrianapez #iloveletters (at Distrito Federal, Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/BhN259sHkFx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1y225c11at8is
So, finally I could get back into the #Homwork challenge. This week’s about to letter something you would say to a younger you if you could go back in time. My answer is: IT’S OK TO MAKE MISTAKES, IT’S OK TO HAVE A BREAKDOWN ONCE IN A WHILE, IT IS OK NOT TO BE OK. Sometimes we pressure ourselves for being the best, for being always perfect. That’s what sometimes society tells you, if you’re not the best, don’t even try doing it. But what about satisfaction of doing something we love, even though we’re not the best at it? Life’s so much easier when you understand that it’s ok to be normal. When you’re not afraid of making mistakes, when you don’t want to be perfect all the time. ENJOY BEING YOU, THE BEST OF YOU, even though it’s “normal”. Thanks to @homsweethom for making me realize this for myself. @adobedrawing #homwork #lettering • • • • #letteringchallenge #letteringpractice #calligraphy #oknottobeok #minimal #minimaldesign #minimalism #graphicdesign #50words #letteringdaily #dailytype #designspiration @designspiration @design @goodtype #goodtype #handwriting @fadforfad #fadforfad #whiteaesthetic (at Mexico City, Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/BmrUPkElwow/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=i0hzmbz2mp91

social distancing doesn’t only apply to big crowds. - thank you to our doctors, nurses, pharmacists, scientists, janitors, grocery store workers, delivery drivers and everyone else who can’t stay home.
