Custom Chalk Lettering by Dana Tanamachi

July 04, 2011 from amanda's blog

I'm certain that most of you have seen Dana's work floating around the internet somewhere, be it ffffound, tumblr, or wherever. Every time I come across her work, even if it's the 10th time I've seen it, I'm always completely blown away by the level of detail that each piece possesses. Can you believe that no stencils or projectors are used? I've included a few time-lapse videos of the projects being created for your viewing pleasure so be sure to check those out!

DANA TANAMACHI is a graphic designer and custom chalk letterer who hails from the Lone Star State, but currently resides in Brooklyn, New York. She enjoys crafting, reading, walking, and especially listening to Country music from the 1990s. After hours, Dana moonlights as a custom chalk letterer, creating large-scale chalk installations in New York City. She also applies her chalk lettering to a wide variety of uses for publications, packaging, and apparel.
