Lettering for the cover of Letting Loose, a monograph showcasing the work of the late Portuguese painter and printmaker Paula Rego, designed by Joe Hales Studio for the occasion of the exhibition at the Victoria Miro gallery.
Starting from Rego’s signature, I opened up the counters and reduced baseline shift in order to increase legibility, while retaining the character of her handwriting.
