Several years ago I created that »logo« for my wife, based on a painting she had done before. Now, she has translated her page into english - and we would like to translate that word in the logo to english. However, I have no idea how I achieved that squeezing/shearing/transformation of the font. Can anyone give me a hint what the right process could be? Using the Pen to draw that circular line would be surely one of the steps. What are the others?!

Thanks for any hints.
