Heartsome

Heartsome is a ?forgotten? word. It was mostly used in Scotland and it means: ?giving cheer, spirit or courage?. I had never heard of it, but I thought it deserved a second chance, so I named this font Heartsome!

Heartsome is a handmade Didone; I used a brand new bottle of Chinese ink and a brand new synthetic pencil to paint the glyphs. Brand new, because all of my drawing materials seem to have evaporated when we moved into our new house? A synthetic brush, because I don't want animals to suffer because I feel the need to create fonts.
