✏️ Hello! I'm ICHIKA, a lettering artist

Nice to meet you! I'm ICHIKA who works as a lettering artist. Since I was a kid, I designed and drew letters on the covers of my friends' notebooks, and I've always loved drawing letters.

My job was to draw letters for someone, and now I'm making custom-made hand-drawn items, mainly wedding items, under the name ecribre (ecrible).

In addition, we are engaged in a wide range of activities, such as designs using letters, murals and illustrations, and painting services at events.

Everything from basic hand lettering fonts to how to arrange them

In this class, I will teach you a simple arrangement method based on how to draw 3 basic characters: gothic, serif, and cursive.

We'll step up little by little from the basics, so even beginners can work on it without worry.

Tips for choosing a typeface and layout

I think the good thing about hand lettering is that you can use it in your daily life!

You can also learn about the process of finishing it as a work, such as how to choose a typeface when drawing cards, posters, etc., and layout tips.

It is also recommended for those who want to give a special hand-drawn card or those who want to create lettering works.

Leather painting (even making original items with markage!

Markage is a technique of writing lettering on leather.

In this class, we will write simple letters and illustrations on a leather key chain with initials and a coin case.

Once you get used to it, you can also customize your own bags and leather goods. I recommend it as a way to enjoy lettering even more in everyday life!
