Hand Lettering Variations

Drawing letters by hand instead of writing them lends hand lettering a little more control and precision than calligraphy. This also allows hand lettering to show off more design styles in its letters, sometimes even mimicking calligraphy or certain forms of typography.

The hand lettering fonts collected here have a distinct construction that could have only come from a practiced hand. Unlike typography, no two hand-drawn letters would look the same.

Personality in Lettering

There are hundreds of handmade fonts out there, and each one brings out a certain personality in the words they spell. The fonts are even marketed that way sometimes, with the artists describing their hand lettering as goofy or fun. Using hand lettering in your blogs or personal websites will certainly give your online content a more personable voice. Printed material meant to draw in people and entertain them must have a certain personality to better engage readers with.

Unlike calligraphy, which leans on muscle memory and writing, hand lettering is more closely related to drawing. A letter’s stroke and form is planned and deliberately designed. Because hand lettering is more free form and is less tied down by rules found in calligraphy, each one comes out with a distinct style that is both deliberate and intrinsic to the artist, making up its own visual flavor and personality.
