I’m scared of failure.
That’s really what it all comes down to. My parents taught me the value of finishing what I’ve started and it’s served me well. It doesn’t matter if you’re tired or don’t feel like it. You finish.
I’ve accomplished quite a few things in nearly 27 years, things I’m really proud of, but [...]
Sadly, it’s true.
I’ve been hard at work this weekend helping get the StitchMix website ready to launch and prepping for Fashion Night Out in Chicago this coming Friday (if you don’t know what StitchMix is, shame on you!). Last night I had a burst of typographical inspiration and am happy to say that I’ve got quite [...]
What else?

Who could resist day-glo green and lightening bolts? Not me. Happy Monday!

I’m happy to be back – even if just for an evening! Technically I’ve completed 2 designs this week, but I have to hold off on posting one of them because it will be featured on the super cool Design Milk blog next Wednesday (September 1).
Design Milk is an online magazine dedicated to modern design [...]
The last few weeks of this summer have been hot and productive. While I’ve been furiously trying to tie up the last few ends of my summer extra-curricular design work, I’ve been totally slacking on my design a day (and feeling a little guilty I must admit).
So in Dribbble-esque style, I decided to post snapshots [...]
I find it intriguing. So many times you say (or you hear people say) that there is something they won’t do, somewhere they won’t live, something they won’t be or do. Ironically, and more often than not, you find yourself (or those people) doing exactly what it was you said (or they said) they wouldn’t [...]
This wallpaper is for my southern friends.

Ever since finding her work in HOW Magazine last year, I’ve been in love with Linzie Hunter’s work. Originally from Scotland, she was a theater major before studying illustration at the Chelsea College of Art and Design. All of her work is great, but my favorite is the series of gorgeous hand-lettered illustrations using subject [...]
Have I mentioned how much I love drawing type? Right.
The thing I love most about hand drawn typography is there isn’t the pressure of making it perfect. The slightly shaky lines, the lines that accidentally wander outside of the boundaries of the typography…that’s what I love. It’s tactile and human and you don’t get that [...]
