Journal #19

Introducing: Papyrus

 
 I do not necessarily think that this font is a bad thing. Sure it is a type of font that I would easily skip past, but that does not raise question as to why others love to use it. I feel like for something to be effective and noticeable it has to be original and unique. I feel like since you see this font being used non-stop it has lost its "spark" so to speak. Therfore it is not very creative or smart to use papyrus. It is a trend that is going to die out eventually. I think this font only works for specific uses. The font kind of reminds me of a plant shop. [random I know, but isn't this all opinion based?]
So you ask me what I think of the font? I think it is not exactly horrible but extremely overused. It is extremely recognizable to the eye making it easy to bypass in this world made up of advertisements. There are thousands of fonts out there waiting to be creatively used. So go find one that is fit for you!
