First, I want to thank the amazing art community that exists on many social media platforms. Social media has allowed connections like never before, and Im thrilled that so many of you have chosen to have me as part of your learning journey.

Id like to thank my wife, Laura Dean. Without her, I would have never taken the incredibly scary leap into what is now such a rewarding career by doing what I love every single day.

I want to thank the team at Skillshare for opening the first door for me. Ive always been passionate about teaching, and teaching on a platform that values keeping creativity accessible is my jam.

I want to thank my agent, Carrie Howland, for convincing me that I could be bigger than the box I didnt realize I was trying to keep myself inside of.

Lastly, I want to thank the team at Ten Speed Press for being such a staple in building my book into something even greater than I envisioned.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

tools to get started

Having the right tools and materials is essential to your success in your brush lettering journey. Your pens matter. Your paper matters. There are so many options to choose from, so Ive created a comprehensive guide of some of my favorite go-to supplies. Supplies can be found in local art stores and online. Amazon is a great resource if you dont have a store nearby thats loaded up on lettering s upplies.

Its important to understand the differences that brush pens offer, such as their tips, flexibility, and control. Paper matters because you want to ensure youre not damaging your pen tips. Allow me to el aborate.

brush pens

Brush pens range in flexibility, which is the main thing youll notice as you use them. For more control, youll want tips with less flexibility because your upstrokes wont get away from you as youre learning, meaning the transition between adding and releasing pressure will be easier. The more comfortable you get, the more youll be able to confidently use brush pens with more flexibility.

paper

What most folks dont know is that a lot of paper can ruin brush pens. Copy or printer paper, for example, contains micro fibers that will shred the tips of brush pens, causing them to fray and rendering them useless. You can grab quality paper from art stores and online. Expect to pay for quality because you get what you pay for. That said, there are some more accessible price points than others, and Id always opt for the best value. Colored paper can even be incorporated if its smooth enough. Id stay away from construction paper though; for now, lets stick to the basics of getting started.
