Meet The Letter-Lover Behind The Doodler’s Guide

Hey friend! I’m Desirée — lettering artist, creative cheerleader, and founder of Her Hazel Eyes Studio. Author of 7 hand-lettering workbooks. Since 2016, I’ve taught thousands of students across 55+ countries how to hand letter with confidence, joy, and a whole lot of heart.

My mission is simple: to help others discover the joy of creating beautiful, meaningful work in their own unique style.

DESIREE FERDIG

  • Monoline pens with varying weights or a sylus if you’re choosing to go digital with this course. PS… A monoline pen is one that produces lines of constant thickness regardless of how hard you press down.

  • Upon purchase, you’ll have lifetime access. The course is self-paced & done on your timeline. If there are any updates to this course or it grows in size, you’ll have access to the updated content.

  • This course is for the creative hustler, wherever they fall on the artistic spectrum. If you're a newbie & you're not shy to try & you’re eager to learn, a beginner (with moxi) can take these styles on like a pro.

  • No iPad is needed unless you're taking this course digitally. The entire course will be demonstrated using 100% pen, paper & imagination.

  • You’ve purchased my paper lettering guides (kits) in the past & you've desired a course where you could watch me create so you can follow along. I've never done anything like this outside of “live” courses. I've never created a book with the doodler in mind & doodlers, by nature, are visual learners, so I went all-in & created something for you to follow along & create alongside me.

  • There is a downloadable workbook that comes with the course. It has an alphabet for each lettering style, blank pages & a pattern library. You do not need my lettering guide, but it would be helpful as it will help guide you with practice pages, allowing you to practice & play while the video isn't on & in front of you.
