# Hand Lettering and Custom Type in Ink

By Samantha Hahn, New York area watercolor illustrator.

Hand lettering and hand-drawn type, painted with brush, quill and marker. Cover lines for Marie Claire, the Vogue Japan Beauty Awards cover and a Vogue Japan feature, lettering for The Row, Kate Moss lettering for Milk X in Hong Kong, menus and brand work for Refinery29, and the Zara Kids campaign for Baron & Baron.

Commissioned hand lettering for print magazine cover lines, interiors and site banners, logos and wordmarks, packaging, menus, invitations, campaigns and social content. Lettering can stand alone, be paired with watercolor illustration, or sit atop photos.
