"This Medicine" - Natsuki Otani
I really like this piece of hand made type by Natsuki Otani, it was made by defining the outlines of the letters with a pencil, using a wet brush with no paint to fill the inside and then dripping ink into the water. I have done two responses to this piece, one in Photoshop and one by hand, to try to experiment with different methods of illustration. I prefer the Hand made piece to the one done on Photoshop because it has a much more makeshift and interesting feel to it, and the Photoshop Piece is almost too correct for my liking.
"I'm so happy today" - Natsuki Otani
Natsuki Otani is a Tokyo-born, England-based Artist, who specializes in Hand-made Illustration with Mixed media, often using watercolors. She is a very talented Contemporary Artist and the pieces above were created for the book "Hand Made Type Workshop" by Charlotte Rivers. I chose to analyse this Artist because she brought some incredibly fresh ideas into my head for my own Experimental Typography.
