When my business partner told me I should update my site I was like “my website’s fine!” and “I don’t want to!” But five years later I finally caved and updated it. Sorry it took so long my friend. Have a look if you like letters ✌️🖤

I love lettering but I question my choices when I send what I feel is the best work I’ve done in months to my new client and they jump on a call with me and after what can only be described as a pregnant pause they say “how do YOU feel about the work you’ve done so far?”
