Mini Break

Beth is coming today! I'm soooo excited - Beth, my sister in law, is getting here today so we can both attend the Joyce Meyer Conference this weekend at the Gwinnett Center, just outside of Atlanta. It's been a really long time since I've seen any of my family, and she'll be the first official visitor to my new place (and I've lived here since April - eek!). It'll also give me a much needed break away from the screen, been pretty intense for a while now. Looking forward to relaxing, and having some fun for once..like the last time I saw her, when we were here:

See you next week!

TypeOh! Tuesday #70

Happy Tuesday! Today Nina and I are announcing wholesale pricing of our Lettersketch sketchbooks to retailers everywhere. Excited to get our sketchbooks out into the world, a little type this Tuesday to celebrate :)

Indie Invitation

Had a new item put up on graphic river over the weekend..check it out right here or by clicking below :)

happy friday + demetri mARTin

Made it through another week! Definitely looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow morning. Tonight I'm meeting up with some friends for pizza, then spending the weekend cleaning/organizing my place before my sister in law comes to visit next weekend! SO excited to have my first real visitor at my new place, it's going to be great. I've been a fan of Demetri Martin's for awhile, and happened to run across his twitter profile a couple weeks ago where he posts some of the random drawings he does. I was literally laughing out loud at some of these and thought I should share a few to start our fridays off right :) You can see them all right here. See you next week!

TypeOh! Tuesday #69

Happy Tuesday! This week I thought I would share what I ended up doing with the marks from last week. I cleaned up my two favorite sketches, and then began playing with their full names. I'm happy with how all of them turned out, but I think it's pretty obvious the mark with their names is strongest. So, this final mark will end up either being turned into a rubber stamp or a sticker on the invites..we shall see :)

Let's Swap It + Watercolors

We got some great Lettersketch news yesterday - our sketchbooks were accepted for a swap via Let's Swap It for a map from These Are Things. Check it out here, and be sure to check out These Are Things, my most favorite map makers.

In other Lettersketch news, Nina figured out our sketchbooks can double as watercolor paper. She shot a bunch of images of her process, which you can all see here, preview below :) Happy Friday!

TypeOh! Tuesday #68

Happy Tuesday! As you can probably guess, I've been super busy lately, but aside from my side project, I've been working on wedding invites for a couple getting married this December. I was asked recently to make an identity mark with their initials, R and P, so I thought I'd share my sketches/brainstorms so far. Any feedback is always welcome! Have a great day!

Lettersketch

Today is the day! It's finally here, and I am SO excited to share my three month long project with you! Remember my friend Nina from NYC? She and I co-founded Lettersketch together, and today the site is live, the products are ready, and I am full of nervousness and joy. This is the biggest leap either of us has taken, but for the love of art and creating something beautiful, every bit of the journey (so far!) has been worth it. We hope you love it as much as we hope you will/we already do. Click here or the image below to go for a spin!

Teaser Take 2!

It's all happening TOMORROW! My [big] announcement. A few more teasers, what could it be?! Tomorrow. Get ready. :)

TypeOh! Tuesday #67

Happy Tuesday! Hope everyone had a great 3 days off! I sooo needed it, and was able to get everything done that I planned for. But now I feel like I need another weekend just to have a weekend :( oh well, it's a hustler's life, I guess :) I wasn't able to spend some good time on hand drawn type, so just a little inspiration for this Tuesday. Hope your tuesday doesn't feel like a monday, and that this week flies by!

Happy Friday everyone! I am soooo glad it's finally Friday. I don't have any exciting vacation plans this labor day weekend (hopefully y'all have something more awesome planned), BUT! I have a TON of work to finish up which I'm so excited about because I have an ENORMOUS announcement coming up next week. Like, the biggest thing I've done in my professional career, big. In the meantime, I hope you all relax wayyy more than I will be, and have a great, great weekend. Here are a few teaser shots to make you extra curious :)
