Chet Phillips is an awesome indie illustrator who makes cool things like Kaiju trading cards and turn-of-the-century superhero portraiture, and I think you’ll like some of his new creations: Coen Brothers Quote Posters.
I like Phillips’ take ont the quote poster- you see a lot of them, but rarely with as much personality and craft. The type treatments are nice, the illustrative elements are great, and the choice of quotes are also a great balance between the more famous lines and deeper-cut throwaways, which I appreciate. Usually these things are super minimalist and vector-y (not a word), so I’m really into the handcrafted feel here.
These are up for grabs, but it doesn’t seem like there are a ton in his inventory, so hop over to his Etsy page and get on it if you’d like one. Fingers crossed he keeps on and makes posters for the entire Coen oeuvre.

Great posters! I love the Coen bros and have seen all of their movies, but for me its The Big Lebowski and Fargo posters that really do it for me. Those movies just have so many hilarious quotes! Certainly Raising Arizona does too (I just haven’t seen it nearly as many times as the other two I mentioned), but for some reason Millers Crossing never really did it for me. It has some great moments, and I cant quite put my finger on it, but it was never one of my favorite Coen flicks (though I know I’m a bit in the minority for saying that among Coen fans….)
Nothing about the clear coat?
