Letter the phrase: “Let’s be allies” 2. Post it on Instagram using the #letsbeallies and #goodtypetuesday hashtag and tell us about a time when someone was an ally to you. 3.

Wow friends... I cannot believe how positive the response from my last post was! It’s one of the few times that the Instagram algorithm worked in my favor and not only did it get tons of engagement, but all you people were INCREDIBLY sweet and encouraging. Thank you to everyone who liked and commented! It means soooo much to me! 🥰 I wanted to follow it with something along the same lines. My friend @psotaball created a challenge a while back to encourage lettering artists to focus on being allies and friends rather than competition. I feel so much love and support when sharing things on Instagram, and I want to put it out there that I want to be an ally to all of you encouraging people too! So let’s be allies and keep sharing all the love and artwork that brings so much joy to the world ❤️ #letsbeallies #somuchlove #friendsovercompetition #encourageeachother #ipadlettering #digitallettering #procreatelettering #brushlettering #handlettering #drawing #lettering #utahdesigner #utahhandlettering #womenofillustration #illustration #ladieswhopaint #handdrawntype #typography #typespire #goodtype #typegang #calligritype #handletteredabcs #handtype #artoftype #illustration #thedailytype #sketchbook #sketchbookartist (at Salt Lake City, Utah) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrT6dh4ntkS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=h30paje2pqdr

“Thank you for your kindness” . This is my #Homwork for week 40, an assignment from a guest teacher, Chantal Psota Ball (@psotaball, who launched a challenge #LetsBeAllies): to create a thank you note for someone you appreciate. . Here my gratitude is not to the particular indivisuals, but to every single person who was kind, nice, and/or respectful to me at any occasions, at any levels. . . . . This assignment made me reflect a lot. (I am a terrible writer…, so please bear with me.) I grew up where being kind, nice, and respectful to others is something “normal” or “you should be”. By living abroad I learned it is not always the case, and I accepted it as a difference, not good or bad. But at one particular place when I witnessed kindness is not even appreciated, it was eye-opening… well, really shocking to me: Some people who consider kindness as “weakness”. Some people arrogantly laughed at me as if I am doing something totally useless. Others took advantage of it. Even though I was expecting absolutely nothing in return, I was sad and angry. Eventually I learned to let go, but there’s no way I could integrate in that society. It indeed was “A sane person to an insane society must appear insane. - Kurt Vonnegut ” experience. I am a firm believer of kindness. If every one of us let go of our ego and care about others even just a tiny bit, we can make our world the better place. . . @homsweethom #kindness #lettering #handlettering #handdrawn #design #graphicdesign #graphicdesigner #illustration #レタリング #ハンドレタリング #letterordie_reikohrt 451/∞ . #bftype #calligritype @designspiration #designspiration @distressedunrest #distressedunrest #goodtype @goodtype @handmadefont #showusyourtype #slowroastedco #typematters #typespire @typetopia #typetopia #typeverything #typeworship #typism #typographyinspired #typostrate #TYxCA #50words https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo9sy34Fszg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d1ocn9y5ekxs
