I&#8217;ve used gel by dabbing on a glass and then I draw<br \/>\nthe letters on with a clean brush. all I had to do was to bring that glass to the sunbeam and to reflect letters by a lens on the background.&#8217;\u00a0<\/em>by re-determining<br \/>\nthe angle and a distance from which the digital camera was positioned to the piece of glass with gel-scrawled type, the designer was able to achieve a fascinating<br \/>\ntrick of light. it was due to this subtle shift in materials and method that the designer was able to document his sun-formed font.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/idd.stojmirovic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/first.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-934\" title=\"first\" src=\"http:\/\/idd.stojmirovic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/first-300x183.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"183\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>another example we could use in the last chapter.
