12 Inspiring hand lettering works in progress

I'm reading Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut... can you tell? ;)

Destroying Art by Jessica Hische
And last but not least (since I and probably everyone reading has a lettering crush on Jessica Hische) - here is a crazy sad but cool deconstructive lettering piece from Jessica's Instagram.
