I studied with Arnholm at UGA also and he was such a huge influence on me and how I design. Reading how he has influenced you as well was a pleasure and made me feel an instant bond. Good luck with your work and I will definitely be checking out your fonts! Hi Neil! I studied with Arnholm at UGA also and he was such a huge influence on me and how I design.

He was one of the finest teachers I had while there, and it's amazing how he instilled in his students a passion and enthusiasm for typography. (Funny that I still remember his famous quote, "That's pretty good for government work.".) Best wishes~ Cathy I too graduated from UGA and was a student of Ron Arnholm.

Like Neil himself says, or rather, quotes, "Good is good." This interview -- the questions and the well-thought-out responses -- is good. I'm going to come back and read it a few more times, I think, just to squeeze all the goodness out of it. Thanks to both of you for making this.

I love seeing the different sketches and how everyone gets their ideas on paper. When ever I see a type designers sketching paper I can kind of step back and tell myself "Why am I being so technical from the beginning? It's just ideas at this point." This is something I have a problem with, not only when sketching letters, but also when tackling most other design projects. Neil If you ever stop by Tokyo for a few days on one of your trips, drop me an e-mail! Johno still has to make his way up here! Haha.
