The Ampersand Storm
"An ampersand a day to keep your ennui away."
The Ampersand Storm is a personal lettering project consisting of illustrated ampersands posted regularly on Instagram.
I began the project while finishing my MA, as a vehicle for trying different lettering styles and decorative treatments. The project has grown to over 300 original ampersands as of June 2022, with over 5k organic followers.
I tend to work in sets, based on color palettes and experiment with many styles.
