Your Words, My Hands

A project that started as an experiment. During Covid lockdowns with all projects cancelled or paused and with social media becoming increasingly critical of lettering based posts that were too positive/negative given the situation I had the idea I would illustrate your words in my style. The project went very well and has been revisited a number of times with essentially the same model - The project is announced, orders are taken for a limited period and then are shipped around the world.

Your Words, My Hands for charity.

A series of special editions of ‘Your Words, My Hands’ at Beyond Tellerrand Conference, Dusseldorf & Berlin, Germany and Skate-Aid fundraiser in Munster. Requests taken and painted live in English, German, Dutch, French and Swiss.

Your Words, My Hands Art Republic & GF Smith.

After lockdown in late 2020 I launched a self initiated project where I wrote your requests in metallic gold on black (see Your Words, My Hands for previous examples). September 2021 the project returned for Part II, this time in collaboration with Art Republic and GF Smith papers for a range of exclusive paper colours and inks. Orders taken for 5 days and then shipped worldwide.
