Richard Stallman
Small exercise on the basics of typography.

Basic techniques for drawing letter is "CRAP" short for Contour, Repetition, Alignment, Proportion.

Free open source program was used to create the type/letter.
The feedback for the letter O was that it was too wide & might not be legible. So I decreased the weight of the letter while keeping the irregular shape on the X height.
The original sketch was inspired from a font called, Gabriola.

The serifs for the letter was too wide/open so I widened the frame distance.
