Draw typographic compositions full of exquisite colors and textures inspired by food
Food can be an infinite and delicious source of inspiration for your lettering projects. Lettering artist Nubia Navarro, better known as Nubikini by over 49K followers on Instagram, has found that the right combination of food textures and colors is a great way to spice up letters.
After teaching Calligraphy and Lettering for Instagram with Procreate, Nubikini is back to show you how to create food-inspired typographic compositions with Adobe Fresco. In this course, master the tools of this app and learn how to digitally paint with original, mouth-watering textures. Transform your design into physical art by putting it on a tote bag or framing it to decorate your kitchen.
