Wednesday, November 12th, 2008Some gorgeously airy photography from Canada-based Jennifer Squires Productions. Jennifer emailed me to tell me about her new collection of photos featuring scenes from Greece, including Gateway to the Past and Farther Than the Eye Can See (both shown below) - but I just love her other work too, all graceful stillness. Visit [...]
L’Affiche Moderne.
Monday, November 10th, 2008Merci beaucoup to Mélanie who emailed me last week to tell me about the very cool L’Affiche Moderne, a fine art print e-shop offering works from a variety of talented illustrators and photographers. Each piece is one of a 300-edition run of high-quality digital prints. Have a peek at a few of my [...]
Creepies.
Friday, October 10th, 2008When did it get so cold out? I was just hitting my stride tan- and A/C usage-wise when suddenly, it was fall. Alas. Though I prefer summer, at least the change in season means I can have pumpkin pie (best pie ever) and take my fierce boots out of storage.
It also means [...]
Draw draw draw.
Friday, October 3rd, 2008The drawings at draw draw draw make me smile - the style reminds me of the illustrations in some of my favorite books growing up, and the blog is like a kind of droll graphical diary. Artist Liz Tjepkema says:
Computers frustrate me, but I like blogs. This blog will feature drawings documenting my stuff [...]
I Am Still Alive.
Wednesday, October 1st, 2008Remember the We Are So Good Together print I loved this spring? Here are more great prints from Dylan Fareed’s Brooklyn design practice, I Am Still Alive: I Can’t Get No, Gravity’s Rainbow, The Seven Rules of Astronomy (”shit be hot, shit be not hot” - ha! loves it), and Holler.
A few cool prints.
Monday, September 29th, 2008From London design agency SampsonMay - Radius ‘09 (a radial 2009 calendar), Dirty Bird, and Use Two Hands. Though they work primarily on design projects for corporate clients, the people at SampsonMay spend their non-work hours on great art prints like these, among other things. Take a look at their online shop, Justgonesix.

The abc’s.
Monday, September 8th, 2008Love this alphabet chart from The Small Object, created wholly from their line of rubber stamps. Goofy little creatures - from underdogs to dust bunnies to teeth - cavort in rows across the chart, illustrating their letters. Available in sepia and green.
These posters don’t suck.
Wednesday, August 27th, 2008Check out this array of seriously awesome original posters from The Poster List - a little bit vintage and thoroughly, well, rockin’. I’m especially tickled by their take on the ubiquitous Keep Calm poster…

Boids.
Friday, August 1st, 2008Indulgent little birds with sweet teeth from illustrator Kate Wilson. Having smuggled a jar of confiture d’abricot home with me, I’m with Lily on this one… though mine wasn’t free or from the hotel.
Also check out Kate’s gallery, flickr, or etsy shop for more of her sweetly quaint drawings.
A paper menagerie.
Friday, June 27th, 2008Continuing the animal theme are these sweet letterpress prints from Kirk and Eva Jorgensen’s Ohio-based Sycamore Street Press, which only just started its printing press this year. Charming beasties hide behind and entwine themselves around the alphabet.
Available at their etsy shop.
Keyboard shortcuts.
Wednesday, June 4th, 2008My life would be a lot more harrowing if it weren’t for keyboard shortcuts. During the workday I’m all about Excel shortcuts (Alt-E-S-V, anyone? - that’s “paste values” for the uninitiated), but while prepping a blog post in the evening, I switch over to Photoshop shortcuts, where my command key (that’s him above) gets [...]
More from the Keep Calm Gallery.
Friday, May 30th, 2008The Keep Calm Gallery (which, true to its name, stocks the print nearest and dearest to me) has expanded its offerings - and it’s all… I… can… do… to not grab them all for my walls. I love them for their vintage look-and-feel but modern sensibilities. Here are some of my favorites.
Incidentally, the [...]
