Does vectoring make you feel like herding cats sometimes? We get that, and we're here to make sure you never have to feel like that again.

Welcome to the workshop series where we'll help you demystify that mysterious "what the heck is wrong with it" feeling. We’ll be exploring the qualities of shapes, strategies to wrangle the unruliest of béziers and concepts that will help you tackle even the largest of projects.

By the end of this workshop, you’ll be ready to tame the wildest of glyphs. A back-to-basics for those with experience. It's the course you wish existed, tailor-made for those looking to up their type game.
