Two new iPhone wallpapers available!
So I'm pretty excited! Poolga, an iPhone wallpaper site, just released two of my drawings! They're called Awkward Youth and are a tribute to those clumsy times we've all had while growing up. The drawings are actually quite personal to me, but I won't tell you why. I think it's better to make up your own stories about the two people.

Plush Oddities
Some disturbing and somehow still cute plush sculptures by Joshua Ben Longo. Really great.

Music Mondays
Don't know too much about these guys, but I kinda like them. A little like Built to Spill without all the long distortion/jammy parts. Some good videos, too.

New Photo Blog from Jerry Hsu
He might be better known for being a professional skateboarder, but I've been a big fan of his photography for a while now. He's got a great eye for the interesting things that most people would overlook. Check out his new photo blog.

New Print
I've got a new print available in the shop! I've been working on a new series of prints of jumbo jets landing and taking off and this is the first one. Keep your eyes open for more of these to come.

On Opera In Flatland
This book by Stephen Farrell and Steve Tomasula, which first went to press in 2004, is a great example of when a designer teams up with a writer. Or vise-versa.
Printed in the colors of flesh and blood, VAS: An Opera in Flatland—a hybrid image-text novel—demonstrates how differing ways of imagining the body generate diverse stories of history, gender, politics, and, ultimately, the literature of who we are.
This book is simply beautiful and the hardcover version (which is pretty hard to find) is even more beautiful. There's more information on Stephen Farrell here.
