It’s Font Day with Little Luci!
Jami says Comic Sans is a crime in charts…
but I’m a comic, so I get a pass.

Typography tips: design with intent, use 1–2 fonts max, and keep things readable.

Fonts reflect the mood of your work.
Serious subject = serious font.

LevelUpMySkills.com/dataviz
Cartoon character Little Luci stands laughing with her eyes closed, holding a sign that says ‘Fonts have feelings.’ A speech bubble above her reads, ‘Comic Sans is fine… if you’re me.’ A soft light-blue shape sits behind her for contrast.

Did you know that writing and drawing with pen and paper activate parts of the brain tied to creativity and problem solving?

Slowing down helps me think better. That's why my desk is filled with notebooks and scraps of paper where I've scribbled ideas and sketched out projects.

Color isn't just decoration, it's communication. Guide your audience's eyes by using color strategically to enhance understanding.

Learn about purposeful design in our next workshop on Dec 9, 2025, taught by @justjami.bsky.social

Communicate with color: Color is not just a decoration; Color provides meaning and enhances insight. The accompanying graphics show a "before" chart with multiple random colors for the bars and an "after" chart that shows the bars in shaded teal tones and gray, signifying Excellent to bad reviews (with Excellent being the darkest teal color). This is one of the lessons taught in the upcoming Data Visualization Essentials workshops. details found at levelUpMySkills.com/dataviz

Most people think data visualization is about making things pretty. It's not. It's about making things clear.

You know you've done it right when you design a chart or map that makes someone say "Oh wow, I didn't realize that."
