// The 50 Best Superhero Movies of All Time

In 2013, I came upon Scott Biersack’s lettering when he began his Project365, and I loved his work! And now in 2017, he’s doing some amazing things! While scrolling through Instagram, I came upon his newest project—The 50 Best Superhero Movies of All Time. It’s an illustration and lettering project for the Ringer. Check out their site for all the cool stats and facts, and of course check out the quick snapshot of Scott’s illustrations below!

Random Illustrated Facts

Over the past couple of years, I’ve somehow started following over 700 different accounts on Instagram. There aren’t enough hours in the day to ever make it through my entire feed, but every once in a while, I get lucky and stumble upon an awesome illustration. Yesterday’s stumble happens to be the artist, Mike Lowery (and no, not the Will Smith character from Bad Boys).

Last year, Mike started drawing out random facts as a daily warm up activity in his sketchbook, and now he accumulated quite the extensive collection of quirky and amusing factoids. Check out some of my favorites below, and follow him on Instagram (@mikelowerystudio) to peruse the rest of his work.

This happened with the Tooling Around project by Joseph Alessio, who created this awesome A to Z experimental project with tools. Check out the entire alphabet below—cool, right?

Charming Character Illustrations from Tutti Confetti

Sometimes I come across an Etsy shop, and I love everything (and I mean everything)! The TuttiConfetti shop, owned by Marta Colomer, is one of those fantastic little treasures. Her shop offers charming illustrations of book characters, painters, writers, musicians, and many more (all listed in the Hall of Fame section of the store), and just whimsical illustrations of funny and peculiar characters. Below are just some of my very favorite movie and book character illustrations, so make sure out to check out the entire shop to browse through all of Marta’s creations. Each print retails for $19.77 (+shipping).

So, I fully realize that it is now February, and Christmas was quite a while ago….BUT…it’s still December cold, and I really wanted to share this project by Lizzie M…so better late than never, right?

Last December, Lizzie decided to illustrate an illustration every day leading up to Christmas Day. How adorable and truly fun are these little pieces of Christmas magic? Check out the entire project below, and visit Lizzie’s Blog for various other fun illustration projects.
