One of the best part about living in New York is being surrounded by amazing street art. I am constantly stopped in my tracks by a piece that catches my eye and draws me in for a closer look. Most of the time I remember to snap a quick photo, many of which I’ve started sharing on one of my Flickr sets.
I know it’s small but everything in NYC comes from meager beginnings. Hope you enjoy and be sure to hit me up with anything that grabs you on the streets.

Peter Cuba, a good friend, has been on a tear lately producing some really inspiring pieces. His work is wildly clever and always keeps me surprised. Don’t miss his latest batch of book covers based on actual and fictional titles!
Now that I have a proper place to give shout outs, I’m giving credit where it is due. Check out his personal site at TwoHorseTown, along with his Flickr stream at the links below. Much love!

A long time favorite, Modest Mouse, is releasing a 7″ single that is looking pretty promising. I’m really liking the new rustic direction that is heavy on melodic instrumentals. There are a couple tracks wandering around but my favorite is by far Whale Song. Check it out at the link below where it’s being streamed for your enjoyment.

While on Flickr I found this picture of a very nicely designed poster/flyer of a Bible verse. No frills, just nice clean typography. Design isn’t something often associated with modern theological material, so I decided to go way back and find some archives of illuminated manuscripts from a time when it was. First link it to the Flickr user, Goonete, where I found the original image and the second is to an archive of illuminated manuscripts.

I really like this sans-serif face from the Fontsmith foundry. Looks great at display sizes and has clean soft corners. Actually, they have a lot of great fonts on there site that you can check out at the link below. Like a breath of fresh air, keep up the good work.
