Font I created for the Toronto Zoo’s new Endangered African Penguins. Download it at: http://torontozoo.com/Events/AfricanPenguin.asp

Say it with penguins on my new site, http://www.SayItWithPenguins.com

Drawn by hand then traced in Illustrator.

Type drawn by hand then effects applied in Photoshop.

Because the world of advertising moves so fast, type never really gets crafted the way it should. I’ve always admired good hand-drawn typography so I thought I’d give it a shot over the next few months and hopefully develop a new skill at the same time. This first attempt was drawn by hand then cleaned up in Illustrator.

Furry type.
