Andrey Sharonov — Kiev, Ukraine

“In font creation, there is usually a lot of routine work that begins after a short period of inspiration and easy creative decisions. In most cases I spend quite a long time designing one font, and it reminds me of a marathon race. At the beginning, you're running lightly and full of energy, but by the middle or closer to the end, you feel the fatigue.”

Andrey Sharonov is an independent graphic designer, focusing on creating decorative fonts. He has developed corporate identity for various companies, and very often drew logos by hand. This gave him some experience in working with typography.
