Very nice. I like the antiquated feel.

I really like this concept... especially the I is for Ink. I was talking with a friend this morning about how most of us look at type all the time and don't actually see what we are looking at... the actual letter forms; like breathing - we do it all the time and rarely taste the air. I think that's what your interpretation says to me. Great work!

thanks david for your kind words and insight - i have always loved type, i examine it and try and create my own alphabets from my favorites. never leave a letter unturned i say!

What a terrific idea! I love the type you create and the feel of ink on the old book pages. Sounds like a wonderful project!

P is for a preposterously proud capital 'P' ... (of course, we all like the pretty boys) ...
