“Hone your craft, but don’t stop exploring.” (said by the beatboxer in Pentatonix, you know I’m their biggest fan.) During last months I’ve been going through a season of wanting to try all the other forms of lettering than the one I’m good at. I’m the best at small, precise pen lettering, but brush lettering and 3D forms and actual calligraphy isn’t exactly my jam. At first it was fun to bounce around to each style, but then I started thinking maybe it was wasting time or not really adding value to my business. But as soon as I heard this quote, it all made sense. It’s okay to explore. It’s okay to wander a little bit from your ‘usual’ if it means you’re learning. Don’t abandon what you are good at, in fact, keep working really hard at that. Hone that. But also don’t be afraid to branch out a little! Be bold!
