i have so many things i want to start this year and one of them is to try hand lettering. i know i keep going back to margaret kilgallen, but her work says so much to what is still relevant in art today if not more so. even though this interview was back in 1999, her viewpoint of handmade is so present and worth a review. i also like her explanation of graffiti and it's validity in perspective to commercialism.
