Author's note

Maskes by Lime is a free mask dingbat font built from elaborate, hand-drawn faces. The symbols combine forceful symmetry, striped markings, carved-looking contours, and dense areas of pattern. Each mask has its own silhouette.

It is especially suited to poster design, where a single symbol can become the central image for theater, music, or cultural events. The collection also fits album packaging and illustrated merchandise, with facial features and ornament substantial enough to function as artwork rather than ordinary lettering.
