Are you one of the many people mesmerized by beautiful lettering? Even if art and design aren’t your thing, you’ve probably seen Instagram photos or Facebook posts that feature amazing, stylistic handwriting, and you may have wondered, “How do they DO that?” Today’s show is about two people who have turned their passion for lettering into a business that teaches even the most skeptical letterer how to create something beautiful with basic markers and paper.    Colin Tierney is the Chief Execraytive Officer and the guy behind Crayligraphy. He runs Tierney Studio, an independent design company specializing in lettering, calligraphy, illustration, and branding. Colin has worked with clients from all over the world, and his work has been published in several books, featured on the web, and recognized and awarded around the globe.    Veronica Ruiz is an Educraytor and lettering artist based in Denver, CO. Drawing letters has been her passion since she was first exposed to the wonder of typography in her graphic design classes at the University of Central Florida. Veronica loves sharing everything she’s learned in her lettering journey with others through her Instagram and blog.   How Crayligraphy began   You are probably wondering, “What is Crayligraphy?” Colin explains it simply as “the art of stylistically writing with a marker.” You don’t have to look far to find it, feel its hypnotic power, and realize its popularity. From a blog that he started about 10 years ago to document his progress in learning hand lettering and calligraphy, he progressed to Instagram posts, tutorials, and workshops that feature what he calls, “Crazy Crayola Calligraphy”---”Crayligraphy.” The feedback he received led to requests to teach others his craft, so he started teaching and doing workshops. Now he has a website and a huge demand from people who want to learn from him, so there are Crayligraphy workshops all over the country, along with his trained team of “Crayligraphers,” like Veronica who hosts workshops in their cities. TWEET: Crayligraphy is the art of stylistically writing with a marker.” @crayligraphy #chasingdreams The creative community If you’ve ever undertaken a creative endeavor, then you know the hesitancy most people feel in sharing their work. Colin and Veronica say that this is an important step in your journey because everyone starts out at the beginning. This community as supportive and focused on helping people improve. Crayligraphy supplies are affordable, and anyone can learn to do it well----with practice. Never be ashamed to let others see your work! TWEET: “ Never be ashamed to let others see your work!” @crayligraphy #chasingdreams Next on the agenda What’s up next for Crayligraphy? The plan is to keep holding workshops all over the country but to expand to online courses to open the accessibility to everyone around the world. Colin and Veronica see Crayligraphy expanding into other creative endeavors also, with a book and their own special markers coming in the not-too-distant future! They emphasize that anyone can learn this art form with consistent practice of a mere 20 minutes/day, and an art and design background is NOT required!

Well people, we finally did it. We recorded an episode with Colin Tierney of Crayligraphy and it didn't disappear into the ether! If you don't know the drama, we recorded an episode with him a couple years ago and somehow the audio failed. So we apologized profusely and asked to record again. Well round 2 somehow disappeared as well! In the history of DOL we've never lost any episodes, but it just happens when we record with Colin! Luckily he got over his anger at us and gave us a third chance! Give it a listen for many Colin wisdoms and fun banter!!

A Coffee-Caffeinated Kick Whether you drink it black, with cream, or with cream and 13 Stevias, coffee is a magical elixir that fuels our creative grind. It puts a pep in our step when we start our mornings. It provides that spark when you hit that 2 PM wall. Most importantly, it creates community amongst creators and provides an instant connection. Today, we're going to finish the year strong—as strong as my black coffee—with a 3-part Coffee Caffeinated Kick series. I want this series to function like audio coffee—to give you an extra boost in the AM or PM when you sip your coffee and get after it. Whether you buy your beans ground or grind your own, part one of this series is titled Good Things Happen to Those Who Grind. If you struggle with the lack of time, money, and motivation then this one is for you. Enjoy This Episode? Let me know what you think by sharing a video or photo of you sippin' coffee and listening to this episode and share with me on Instagram @perspectivepodcast.

Rolling With the Punches & Pushing Crayligraphy When you’re pursuing work that’s important to you, you’re going to take a few hits to the chin and get knocked down a few times. The real question is how do you respond? Sometimes in life, you have to roll with the punches, dust yourself off and fight to create another day. You don’t get wrapped up in the adversity because you realize some people have it way worse.. Someone who is a champ at this is my brother Colin Tierney of Tierney Studio. Colin and I met in 2015 for the first time at Creative South back in 2015. He’s become a close friend who always bails me out of a pinch when I need help with pricing, pitching, delivering or providing honest feedback on my work. Lets just say he's a pro at branding, calligraphy, lettering, teaching, starting interesting side projects and most importantly, puns. The dude is also the magician behind Crayligraphy which we will talk more in depth about in the show. Strike a Nerve, Provide Value & Listen In this episode, Colin shares: His process for client discovery, pitching and deliverables The three tiered pricing model Overcoming adversity when you get punched in the mouth Growing an audience with your side project His favorite Crayola secret weapon I want to leave you with some parting words from Colin that I hope will simmer in your soul:  "When you leave this earth, will you regret you didn't start or stick with it?"

"It's Not About the Numbers, Inspire Your Community." This week I chat with Colin Tierney, creator of Crayligraphy.com. Learn more about Colin: https://www.tierneystudio.com/ https://www.crayligraphy.com/ Don't miss episode 50: http://daroldpinnock.com/50

Today, I talk with Colin Tierney. Colin is a West Virginia-based designer and founder of Crayligraphy. We talk about how Crayligraphy got started, freelancing while working full-time and raising a family, and finding a way to balance everything.

Episode 186 This week on Design Recharge I am interviewing Colin Tierney. Colin runs a design firm that specialized in hand lettering, calligraphy, and branding. But he gets really jazzed about helping other people. He has a course that steps you into lettering in a simple and beautiful way. Colin started drawing with Crayola markers a few years ago and found it to be easier for students in his workshops and budding lettering artists to learn if they used a Crayola marker. He coined the term Crayligraphy which is the art of calligraphy with a Crayola. Sign up for his free guide at http://www.tierneystudio.com/crayligraphy and work through lesson one before the interview on Wednesday.
