What are you working on right now? A pretty good balance of personal projects and branding stuff for some startups.

What career would you switch to if you had to stop your current profession? Full-time mountain man. Overgrown beard, straw hat, cabin in the woods, the creepy old dude that’s almost folklore to little kids in the town below. When I’d go out for good I’d leave behind all these wild phallic wood carvings and fancy corn cob pipes. I haven’t thought about it too much, really.

Silencio is the selected works of �tila Meireles.

Saiman Chow updates with some awesome new work.

Discovered some bizarre, Czech children’s illustrations here.

I’ve been meaning to post this for awhile now but perhaps you’ve already seen the work of AWH in Wallpaper, Monocle, or Men’s Health. No? Well go check these guys out, can’t get enough of the simple illustrations/icons and all things big juicy colorful maps and diagrams. Also check out Elsa’s work too, she’s 1/2 of the studio and has more tasty goodness to see.

I think I might have seen the work of Richard Perez first on ffffound and then traced it back to his site, but then immediately I started seeing him in a few other spots and was really impressed. He can do the fun 50’s illustration that we all love these days but he can also rock some modern type and then bring it back full circle with lovely ID work. I believe he may still be searching for work in the SF Bay Area so act now ’cause supplies like Richard are rare indeed!

 

I have been getting into graphic design from Iran again and there is a name that I always love seeeing, Ghobad Shiva. His work is varies from illustration to modernist with a strong sense of typography.

 

He has a site that shows all of his works, here. Ghobad also has a new book out on his works that shows almost his complete body of work. For sure worth a visit and a bookmark.

Super nice guy and talented illustrator Damien Correll has been doing these beautiful covers for the podcasts over at Radiozero. Go there and check them out as well as the podcast if you need some tunes to get you set for the weekend.

If you’ve ever seen Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, or been to Disneyland then you’re already familiar with the work of Mary Blair. One of my favorite illustrators and a personal favorite of Mr. Disney check out a treasure trove of her illustrations here.
