10 Fresh Digital Artists & Designers to Follow on Twitter


thumbIf you’re anything like me, you may be getting tired of seeing the same people on those “designers to follow” lists we often see crop up here on design blogs. I scouted around the underworld of Twitter to see if I could dig up any incredibly awesome, yet under-followed creatives. And in the spirit of anti-establishment counter-culture I hereby announce the 10 of the most underexposed and fresh creatives on Twitter. Ok, so there are probably tons of you out there, and that’s the point of this article. Whether your field is web, design, digital painting, branding, logo design or any creative field – we want to hear from you. So if you know of any designers that need some love, or if you are that designer (I’m down with shameless self-promotion) – leave your Twitter name below so we can all share in your stealthy awesomeness.

Mind-Blowing Typography in 3D | Part 2


Typography in 3D - Part 2 - HeaderAs a continuation of the last post about Typography design in 3D (Mind-Blowing Typography in 3D | part 1) we have now come to the second part. Last one showcased 25 pieces of simply stunning and truly mind-blowing 3D typography and projecting awesome inspiration and I am now going to further showcase 25 more 3D typography designs. I want to further address the fact that these designs and the execution takes a long time and is no where near easy to create. However, today pretty much everyone sees some sort of typography art whether it is in an ad or in a book but they are all around us. It’s just up to your own imagination how you create them and so far it has been the common execution to put letters and words on top of each other. However, this is not how it has to be.

I am still looking for some typography art that is organized in another manner however it seems those are short of supply. Maybe it is because stacking words on top of each other is both easy to view but also saves space in a limited area where the design is to be created.

If you yourself have created a piece of typography art please don’t hesitate to send it in to Minervity.com and if found inspirational enough I will be sure to publish it here for people to be inspired. After all Minervity.com is all about sharing and learning.
