Cleeve Press has designed a wholly new fount.

The Maylis fount is influenced by medieval pen-drawn uncial letters. These characters are individually drawn in pencil and painted by brush with black ink.

The Uppercase woodletters have been engraved in hardwood by Mark McKellier in 2020 and a limited edition letterpress print is available in the Cleeve Press Gallery.

The lowercase characters, punctuation, numerals and symbols artwork has been drawn.

The next objective is to publish the whole fount either as woodletters or a digital fount.
