OregonWet is a special effects Type 1 PostScript typeface combining the graphic effect of water/raindrops/tears surrounding or splashing near each character. It's a full font containing upper and lower case letters, numbers, most shifted-number symbols and punctuation.
Note: Punctuation uses normal keyboard strokes for: : ; ’ , . / and ?. Double quotes, “ ”, for before and after words or phrases are handled by the Mac’s seldom used, often undiscovered built in keystrokes for making curly quotes instead of typewriter looking quotes: Option-[ types a beginning double quote and Option-Shift-[ types and end double quote. (It’s the key just above and to the left of the “dumb quote key,” as my wife calls it.
OregonWet adds splashes, sweat or tears for an eye-catching word effect giving visual meaning to copy conveying a message about anything wet or water related i.e. Tears of joy; sweat or worry from hard work, water recreation etc. You can be creative with this one. It's best at or over 36 and very effective in Outline or Shadow styles. Screen fonts include 36, 48, 60, 72.
I currently teach drawing, painting, printmaking, and commercial art to the youth of America: future serious artists and commercial artists, possibly typographers (alias) high school students – and also produce serious art for local, regional and national juried exhibitions. This is the second Type 1 font I have created: SnyderSpeed, a sign painter's hand-lettered brush stroke alphabet in all caps was the first.
