Mike McQuade

The awesome work of Mike McQuade (@mcqtweet)! It shouldn’t be a surprise that I would be into such a beautiful combination of hand and digital work. Mike seriously has just too much great stuff from digital illustrations, identity designs (like the Tom, Dick and Harry piece) and hand pulled serigraphs and screen prints. Check out more at mikemcquade.com!

Atreyu

Atreyu is a contemporary textura blackletter inspired from Gothic Illuminated Manuscripts of 14th century Germany. I’ve always had an affinity for blackletter since I grew up drawing calligraphy. And lets face it nothing can say Heavy Metal to Happy Holidays like a good old fashion blackletter. You can get a copy of Atreyu from over at the pay what you wish type site, The Lost Type Co-op.

Awesome video with good old Ed Rondthaler about the how the English language doesn’t quite make sense. (Ed is 102 in the video and lived another two years to the ripe young age of 104!)

Let's Do It

sketchy-letters: After almost 2 months on hiatus Sketchy Letters is back (hopefully on a regular schedule). Earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, weddings, a trip to San Francisco, a case of pneumonia, and catching a cold after that had conspired against me but now “let’s do it.” :)
