About Reshu:<\/span><\/p>\n

My name is Reshu Garg, and I am a full-time artist and calligrapher. I have been working in this field for the past four years. I specialize in various calligraphy scripts and am passionate about art and calligraphy. My main interests lie in watercolours and sketching, along with calligraphy, particularly broad-edged calligraphy scripts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Supplies Required:<\/span><\/p>\n

– Pencil<\/span><\/p>\n

– Brush pens<\/span><\/p>\n

– Watercolors<\/span><\/p>\n

– Colored pencils or markers\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

(You can use any colouring medium, as these techniques are suitable for both kids and adults.)<\/span><\/p>\n

Bubble Lettering:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Bubble lettering is a type of artistic writing where the letters appear puffed up, similar to bubbles. This style is commonly used in graphic design for creating logos, posters, and children’s books.<\/span><\/p>\n

Steps to Create Bubble Lettering:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Draw monoline letters with a pencil.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Trace the letters with round, curved lines to create a bubble effect.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Erase the unnecessary inner lines and colour the letters, leaving highlights.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Outline the letters with a bold marker, then work on shadows and highlights. You can add any theme you like.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ribbon Lettering:\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Ribbon lettering transforms our letters and strokes into beautiful, flowing ribbons. With the proper light and shadow techniques, we can create a 3D effect, making the letters appear to have depth and dimension, similar to real ribbons.<\/span><\/p>\n

Steps to Create Ribbon Lettering:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Draw a monoline letter with a pencil.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Outline your letter and add folds as shown in the reference image.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Colour your word in your chosen colour.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Use dark pencil colours to add shading to the folds.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Add shadows using a grey brush pen and highlights with a white gel pen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Glitch Lettering:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Glitch lettering is an art form that embraces digital errors. This style features wavy letter outlines, pixelated or broken letterforms, overlapping or duplicated letters, and some blurry effects.<\/span><\/p>\n

Steps to Create Glitch Lettering:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Draw monoline letters.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Trace them with a brush pen to create your normal calligraphy letters.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Use a light colour to add a shadow on the right side of every stroke (as shown in the reference image).<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Add another light colour shadow on the left side of each stroke.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Using the same colours, draw small breaking lines on the right and left sides of each stroke with a white gel pen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
