Very, very excited to post my 100th design for this year. I’m amazed that I’ve created 100 unique designs in 7 months – it’s been a blast.
Thanks to my March drawing challenge, I have to say that I now enjoy having just a paper and pen in front of me (it hasn’t always been that [...]

The past few weeks have been absolutely crazy. Mix that with a little sunshine and you get a big lack of blogging. In the meantime and until things settle, I’ve decided to profess my love for MadMen (Season 4 starts Sunday evening).

A must have from Kibardindesign. Unfortunately, it’s only a prototype.
