see: chalk board lettering by dana tanamachi, currently living in brooklyn, new york.

drawing on a vertical surface is not easy. and even more difficult to draw with chalks! let alone drawing, i remember when i was still at school i just couldn't even write on a straight line on a chalkboard. who would have thought hand drawn alphabets could be so pretty? see dana's interview at design sponge.

  5. i was hopeless at writing on blackboards when i was at school! i was also impressed by any teacher's ability to keep everything in a straight line!

  6. Wow! I'm already impressed by the girl at the cafe downstairs when she writes the menu of the day on the board. She's so careful. She often erases some letters and writes them again in order to make them look nicer.
    But this one is amazing!
