It can be really frustrating for designers and illustrators when you feel like creating something, but you can’t think of anything to make. The popular quote: “It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it.” is certainly true for the inspiring designs in today’s showcase. These lettering pieces feature all kinds of weird and wonderful messages, but the real value is in the presentation. Enjoy this collection of illustrated typographic quote designs from a range of talented artists, and remember, the next time you can’t decide what to create, just go with the first thing that pops into your head, no matter how random it may be!

  1. These are wild! So…when are you going to do a tutorial on how to do quirky message posters? (Your concentric stripes tutorial is still one of my favorites!)

  2. Love these designs, I was struggling to think of something to design for my graphic design portfolio while client-work slows down and this is a great idea! Thanks!
