Lovely.
It’s not always easy, but it’s for the best.
Sometimes I just need some crossed fingers, some friends, and the right art.
I’m crossing my fingers.
I’m calling my friends.
And these images are all by Mike Mills.
It’s true, a new one. I’m going back to NYLON. I submitted my resignation from Hearst last week because I was offered a full-time, salaried job doing the paid version of what I did when I interned there. Expect the return of graphics posts and whatnot come August, when I’m the new Web Design Assistant there. It looks like I was always meant to be a designer, art school or not.
On a separate note, I’ve loved Exploding Dog illustrations for a few years now. Buy me a print as a celebration gift if you love me. Or just go to the site to fall in love with them as well.
I came across this group of talented friends who call themselves Neon Gray via ffffound.
One of their many projects I’m in love with displayed on their website, this is Say Everything. Described in their own words: “Custom messages spelled out in your favorite office supply. The font Olimpyc was created specifically for this purpose (although we like it on the screen/in print too). Each Letter was designed within the constraints of a standard 3″x3″ Post-It pad. 26 pads in all; each set with a separate sheet of punctuation marks.”
