I don’t understand a word of Russian, but I just love these movie schedule posters for Pushkin Cinema, an underground movie theater that shows arthouse movies. Designed in cyrillic by Olga Vasik from Russia.

Some funny sushi posters for the Eatery a Japanese food restaurant by Vancouver-based illustrator John Larigakis.
One of my favorite illustrations by letterer Mary Kate McDevitt, created for animations to post online for Mother’s Day by Publix supermarkets – a few years back. The quotes were actually collected from mothers on Publix’s Facebook page.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms everywhere!
Nase POP is a street artist with a special love for graffiti lettering.
I especially love his series for the “36 days of type“ project where he painted one big colorful alphabet letter on a wall, each day for 36 days and posted it on his Instagram account.
For her senior thesis, graduate Rebecca Mah created Culture Caps, a drop-cap alphabet inspired from different cultures and countries. Each letter incorporates design aesthetics from different parts of the world with great detail and beautiful execution. An excellent breakthrough project for a young designer.
The project also includes a book, a poster, and a website, which unfortunately is under construction at the moment.

Now, this is a great light-bulb letter. Created by Todd Carosielli, a visual artist specializing in creating CGI illustrations for print advertising.
I just discovered Martin O’Neill, a London-based illustrator & artist who creates beautiful collages for publishing, advertising, design & installation work.
In order to create his images he combines collage, silkscreen, photography, paint, and digital techniques. I especially love his type collages, there is so much going on, I wish I had larger photos of his work to be able to see the detail.
More lovely work on his website called appropriately “Cut it out“
The letter lover in me is loving the work from artist Wayne White.
He is best known for his ironic “word paintings”, composed of oversized, three-dimensional slogans and phrases painted on cheap landscape paintings found at markets.

“Dream Big” by Niteesh Yadav, a graphic UI designer and letterer from New Delhi, India.
“Niteesh’s piece is for the “IndiaThroughType” series, aimed to bring out some unique and interesting aspects of India through various type based experiments. He is traveling across the country to witness the rich culture, arts/crafts and daily practices from which to draw inspiration for Finding.design, a personal project to find out what is Indian Design?
This is the first piece to kickoff the project. The “paint” used is not a paint but powdered natural colors mixed with water which are used to decorate the elephants during Indian festivals. The elephant’s name is Rani, which means queen in English. Niteesh spent an entire day getting to know her before he began painting. He said she seemed to really enjoy it.”
Talk about some original places to do lettering!
Another illustrator I discovered recently that specializes in hand-lettering: Linzie Hunter is based in London and her lovely work is featured in books, magazines and advertising campaigns internationally.
