About the book

In Progress (Revised Edition)

This revised edition of design-world darling Jessica Hische's career-spanning art book offers a fascinating inside look at her work in progress, featuring highlights from her most exciting recent projects and new tips for lettering with digital tools.

In Progress is an inspiring and informative book that showcases the creative prowess and technical expertise behind artist, author, and type designer Jessica Hische's distinctive lettering and typography styles. In explanatory captions throughout these pages, Hische guides readers through the phases of each hand-lettered project—for major clients such as Wes Anderson, NPR, Nike, and more—from gathering inspiration and sketching out rough ideas to revising and refining final designs.

With this new edition, readers have the chance to:
  • Revisit the beloved artist’s sketchbook.
  • Follow the evolution of her process over the arc of her career.
  • Learn more about how Hische has integrated digital tools into her practice.
  • Discover more ways to be creative and improve one’s own work.


NEW MATERIAL: This revised edition offers up-to-date information about Hische's technical process and go-to tools. Learn more about her approach to drawing digitally on an iPad and delve into inspiring new projects, following them from the first sketch to the final design. 

DESIGN WORLD LEGEND: Considered a pioneer in the modern lettering movement, Jessica Hische has enjoyed a multi-faceted career with a diverse range of compelling projects—from blockbuster movie titles, book covers, and logo redesigns to original posters and prints. She's spoken at over 100 conferences, colleges, and other design events on nearly every continent, including FITC, Creative Mornings, AIGA, The Brand New Conference, the Build Conference, and more.

IN-DEPTH VISUAL RESOURCE: A perfect self-purchase or gift for artists and designers of all levels, from aspiring letterers to professional illustrators looking to hone their skills. With more than 250 full-color images and metallic silver ink used throughout to represent Hische’s penciled sketches, this highly visual book is an essential—and entirely enjoyable—resource for those who practice the art of hand lettering or calligraphy or for anyone who appreciates typography in all its styles and forms. The book also includes a preface by internationally celebrated creative director, graphic designer, type designer, and author Louise Fili.
