You may have heard Lisa Congdon’s name before. She’s an artist, illustrator, and an avid collector, and in 2010, she documented 365 of those collections. You can see them all on her Collection a Day website.
Now she’s begun a new project, “365 Days of Hand Lettering“. Congdon will scan her inked designs and post them daily. If you enjoy calligraphy, vintage lettering, or typography of any sort, you owe it to yourself to dip into the project every once in a while, at least. Although Congdon stresses that she’s not a hand-lettering expert, I’m sure the work will be interesting.
Here are the first three posts of 2012:
