I really enjoyed letterpress as a process, I'm not particularly confident at type and layout on the computer, I'm quite overwhelmed by the choice and how easily I can keep changing it. There was something very satisfying about writing out sentences from the rack of letters, learning where each one comes from, not unlike recognising where the keys are on a keyboard!
It is a time consuming and fiddily process, I would like to come back and use it for something. The analog nature of the process and the results has the handcrafted element and feel that I like/can't help but be drawn to.
