Just My Type Initial Sketch

   Here's the first draft for a recent personal project, a small print I designed with Valentine's Day in mind. Although the proportions of the final piece ended up slightly more condensed, the composition changed very little. The small arrows dotting the tracing paper acted as notes to myself as I prepared to draw a tighter sketch, before finally vectorizing the lettering.

    @Isaias Loaiza Thanks. I honestly don't draw guidelines for my sketches very often, much less vertical ones to ensure a consistent angle. So, this is a bit of a rarity for me.
