My Initials
The task was to create three square compositions in Adobe Illustrator, measuring 6″×6”, combining the letters, and creating ligatures.

The first composition uses only serif fonts. I combined the letters E and M in the same size and font, Big Caslon Medium, with their edges creating an elegant look.

The second composition uses only sans-serif fonts. I used the letters E & m in the font Kannada MN. I positioned the m on the second stroke of the E to create a fun shape resembling a window, which also looks like the Chinese word 巴 (pronounced as “ba”).

The third composition uses a serif font for m (Courier New) and a sans-serif font for e (Kannada MN). I angled the e and positioned it on the bottom right of m. The final look reminds me of musical notes.
