I stumbled on this very, very nice poster by Holstee recently. I don't usually take much notice of these feel-good motivational posters but this was nicely written, well designed and the typography by designer Rachel Beresh was refreshingly simple, unassuming but highly effective. I wouldn't mind having this in my design studio. Visit Rachel Beresh's portfolio and drop by Holstee to check out the stuff for sale. The poster's a bit expensive though...

One of the sketches I used for a painting project. "Kandila" is Filipino for "candle".
