Signature~

I tried my best to get my digital signature to reflect my personality. The font I decided to use is "Romance Fatal", which I chose because I appreciated the non-uniformed and free nature of the characters. I feel the font reflects my attitude, as I am open minded and expressive, characteristics which I feel are present in this font - the swirling and squiggly characters have an organic and textural feel to them.

I chose to vary the size of my letters in my first name, as a way to represent how my mood is often up and down, but I kept the letters of my surname fairly uniform, to show that despite this, I am reliable and loyal.

I chose to kern the letters in my first name in a disjointed but close way, to represent my non-linear way of thinking, and the fact that others see me as shy and closed at times. The letters in my last name are tracked, in an effort to show stability (a notion which I also tried to reflect in the organisation of the letters – a stable rectangle shape), and that once people get to know me, I tend to be more open and outgoing.

I kept the colours of my signature simple – black and dark grey. I chose to stick with monochromatic colours as I wanted to express how I tend to aesthetically prefer texture and pattern over lots of colour and busyness in my creations.

The layout of my signature on the page is near the bottom, and fairly central. I did this as I feel I still have lots to learn, and lots of room to grow. I kept the signature relatively small compared to the rest of the space to reflect this too, and how I prefer not to be the centre of attention, and am not an extroverted person.
