We like email. We also like being able to help spread the word about young upstarts who are starting on their mission to get real paid. This is how I came across Scott Nellis, a Brighton based artist/illustrator who shot me a link-laden email a while back to promote his wares.
Nellis’ work isn’t something that [...]

kerry roper is one cheeky chappy. just peruse his illustration/designs below and be amused (big laughs in particular for his “helvetica” piece which currently hangs on my boss’s wall). kerry lives and works in london and is one of the most amusing characters i have ever met. his sense of humour and playfulness shine through [...]

brock davis is group creative director for advertising agency carmichael lynch in minneapolis. knowing how busy us ad peeps are, it’s great that he still keeps his wit about him and hasn’t lost his keen sense of humour – or the desire do make works just for the kick of it.
