What does a lettering artist do?

As a lettering artist, your responsibilities include hand lettering (i.e., drawing letters by hand) to form words in a creative manner that mirrors computer typography in graphic design. Lettering artists have excellent design and creative skills to produce letters with unique shapes and forms for individuals and businesses who use them for logos, products, and signs. Lettering artists also assist with creating lettering for advertisements and advertising materials, such as brochures and white papers. Your duties as a lettering artist depend on who you work with, which is usually clients with specific lettering needs for personal or business use.
