PTA

This is PTA. It may look violent and complicated but it's actually quite simple.


I just manipulated the outlines of the letters to make into unrecognizable shapes then switched the border to chalk scribble. By doing so it created this very violent looking splatter effect; I then set the fill color to black and the outline to red. I did try using other fonts and played around with (failingly, I might add) with using perspective mapping. I also applied the eraser tool and manipulated the positioning to make them overlap and combine.

Now, I didn’t choose the letters PTA at random. When I was in high school I was a teacher’s assistant for a semester. I quickly realized that teachers in my school didn’t give a damn about teaching anyone who wasn’t in an AP class. Every now and then, out of sheer boredom, I would scribble Please Teach All on scrap paper. I tried to make it look cool by stylizing the letters…but I can’t draw to save my life.
