This workshop was the best way to start my 2021, #CreateBetterLettering challenged me to use color, my pieces are usually monochromatic so this workshop helped me a lot to get out of black and white. Nico has a very practical and easy way of explaining concepts, he is a very good teacher without a doubt, he shares all of his knowledge without sparing!!!

You are not limited to what you know now…
You can take it to a whole new level and let it open new doors for you.
Does this sound like you?
- "I see little improvements in my work, but I want to improve my skills faster."
- "I feel like my work is not good enough compared to other artists."
- "How are they not running out of creative ideas? "
- "I love creating but I don’t have the motivation and excitement to do so."
- "I want to have my own lettering style, but I don’t know how to do it."
- "I’m a seasoned artist and want to expand my lettering knowledge but I don’t know where to start."
- "Creating can feel lonely, if only I belong to a creative Community."
I’ve been stuck where you are, figured it out on my own, and I can help you move forward and create better lettering.
FROM LETTERING IN MY ROOM
TO A THRIVING LETTERING BUSINESS
It never occurred to me that I can make something out of drawing words.
Lettering was never a path I considered taking because I wasn’t good at drawing. And at that time, I can’t envision lettering to be more than something I do when I’m bored. But pursuing it turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
In 2014, I decided to take lettering more seriously. I wanted to transform that hobby into another service I can offer to my clients as a graphic designer.
So I put in the time and effort to learn more about lettering and to improve my lettering skills. It was when I started noticing improvements in my work that doors started to open for me. And it was when I saw where I can take my lettering and where it can take me.
But it wasn’t a smooth-sailing journey. I’ve encountered a lot of struggles along the way.
The biggest one was actually self-inflicted. I insisted on figuring things out on my own. I eventually learned how to create quality lettering content, but it took me so long, I had to experience many mistakes to learn how.
Another huge struggle I had to overcome was the feeling of being lost. I was clueless on how to improve my work, and I was stuck not knowing what to do next.
I was indeed able to learn what I needed to by figuring it out on my own. But we know that our time is so precious, and there is a better and easier way to learn how to create better and discover your own style.
I don’t want you to waste your time and effort as I did, that is why I created this program – to help you avoid the costs and frustrations of figuring everything out on your own and to make the creative journey enjoyable!
I never imagined that with lettering, my products would reach the other side of the world, my talks and workshops expanded outside my home country, and my work led me to collaborations with international brands. Those are some of the possibilities where creating better lettering can take you.
And that story doesn’t end with me…
Lettering can also take you to greater heights.

I participated in this wonderful workshop hosted by Nico. It was a great challenge to improve my lettering technique and understand the importance of guidelines, balanced layouts, letter formations and clean lines. Nico put a lot of effort into hosting this challenge with 4 days of consecutive live sessions along with a pdf guide for each day. He encouraged us to share our artwork and lessons learned and provided positive feedback to all participants. It was motivating to share our artwork with the other members in the group and it was inspiring to see everyone’s interpretation of the challenge.
If you have the opportunity to learn from Nico I would highly recommend him. His work is beautiful and you will learn a lot from him!

The #CreateBetterLettering workshop + challenge is open for all levels of hand lettering enthusiasts. I love how the 4-day workshop is well planned - from the "secrets" to the challenge per session. It's great that for the live sessions are divided into the talk part, review of our artworks, recap of what we learned plus the actual demo itself. I also like that the videos can be replayed and the guides can be downloaded again for future handlettering practices. The guides also manifest clear instructions. The community we built is a commumity that encourages and inspires one another and I think that's really beautiful.

JOIN THE WAITLISTThe challenge created by Nic #CreateBetterLettering was a fabulous tool in which he shared with us his main secrets when creating a piece of lettering. Through 4 days, Nic immersed us in an enchanting creative world, discovering the steps by step of his favorite techniques. His clear and concrete explanation allowed us to carry out the challenge and above all have fun when creating. One of the most important tips he gave us is that simple can be beautiful.
