I ran across something today that is really cool. It’s called a Holley Portrait, named after a guy who came up with a clever way to do a typographic self-portrait involving his thumbprint and text. I’d never heard about them until I ran across Daniel’s web site that has a few. How clever!
As I’m always on the lookout to find some new and interesting way to write a letter, why not a Holley Portrait Letter? Go over to the site and read about how to make them. Then, instead of doing the traditional portrait, why not put a letter into it instead — the type of letter that someone would keep, like a “how I feel about you” letter or a “you’ve made an impression on me” kinda note. Or do a smaller version with all five fingers in a “bouquet” for “five reasons I love you” or “five reasons why I’m lucky to have you as a friend”, etc. You get the idea.
Have fun!
