draw = ImageDraw.Draw(img)
from font_fredoka_one import FredokaOne
font = ImageFont.truetype(FredokaOne, 22)
line1 = "MiNiFi 0.6.0 on"
line2 = "Raspberry Pi 3 B+"
line_padding = 6
w1, h1 = font.getsize(line1)
x = (inky_display.WIDTH / 2) - (w1 / 2)
y = (inky_display.HEIGHT / 2) - h1 - (line_padding / 2)
draw.text((x, y), line1, inky_display.RED, font)
