Anticipating the Wayzgoose, a gathering of letterpress printers — some prints we made with my Amalta wood type, even on top of my calligraphy, and also on top of my cut outs with Amalta "a" 😀 www.infonta.com/fonts/amalta
Thanks to Elizabeth Fraiser for this precious time ☀️

Oh, a finding from many years ago — some of my fonts, and names of my TypeMedia course classmates, set in those fonts. Amalta here has the name which I changed later. Poster was meant for an exhibition

I haven't spotted letterpress print artists here in my friends list (as yet!), but if you know some — tell them that my Amalta is now available as a real wood type!
Mark McKellier will cut it in sets required.

I was talking about many-years-long thread in my work:
I showed Amalta typeface, its ancestor – my flat brush calligraphy, then my move to the next level in calligraphy to CMYK calligraphy project, and at last – Amalta's transformation into wood type which is happening these days.

Two numerals, designed for a lecture announcement...
I dug out my attempts on Hebrew calligraphy — as we started discussing various scripts with @giffordhead.co.uk
These were written some 20 years ago, so I don’t even remember the letters' names. I thought of matching them stylistically to my Latin and Cyrillic in my Amalta typeface.

Sometimes I open Downloads folder from an odd angle and discover something nice! I have to add this picture to the Font in use section on my website www.infonta.com as well, it's a trilingual book designed by Misha Beletsky in New York, using my Amalta typeface (Latin + Cyrillic)

Amalta font — and the secret behind its letterforms:
the overlapping brushstrokes made the letters close their counters and produced new white shapes inside them.
And those white shapes are just as active as the black ones — right? 😊

And here’s Eros — I’ve chosen Amalta for Eros. If you don’t mind.
I realised I’ve never designed a font in the Mania spectrum, which I think is good news 😀
This was the Types of Love series.
The End.

The Marathon hasn’t started yet, but it’s already bringing wonders to me! I received a request from a man who told me he already has a tattoo ⚡ with a letter from my Amalta font — the initial of his daughter’s name. Now he’d love to have her full name written ❤️

Production today. These colourful bits are actually left-overs from cutting — I'm preparing for my calligraphy workshop in November, cutting paper shapes on which participants will write — and I use the margins for this treats

Essa ideia de liberdade como ausência de controle "estatal" é sensacional. Cuba na cabeça dess amalta é ditadura, China idem, mas a média de participação cidadã nas decisões políticas dos dois países "autoritários" é extremamente maior que nos EUA, GBR, França e Brasil. E isso mensurado em pesquisa.

That's Amalta font, true :) (at the time I designed it I even thought "that's it, I've designed my best font, can stop now" 😉)

The funny coincidence is that the first large word of the title is the same as the type designer's name... it's not Bepa, of course, but Vera, set in Cyrillic.

Great type by Vera Evstafieva. So much spirit. See also her Amalta from 2010: https://t.co/h6Wn9ty2tK
The voice was immediately familiar, but I couldn’t place it until the end. If you want more epic in your font spot, call John (@TiroTypeworks).
