Super Cool Comic: FREAKANGELS
I know it's been a little while since I last posted. (Sometimes I'm a terrible blogger. What can I say?)
But, TGIF!
Since launching a website for my client Icons Comics & Games, I've been taking a peek at more comics lately. Check out this pretty amazing free, ongoing and weekly comic FREAKANGELS, written by Warren Ellis and illustrated by Paul Duffield.
Waiting for permission to post some of the illustrations, but check out this super cool comic @

Highlights from Shenandoah, VA
I'm baaaack! We went to the beautiful Shenandoah Valley in Virginia with some friends. From snow, to rain, to 80 degree weather, I feel like we've been through all the seasons in just 4 short days.
Between the 6 of use we've taken well over 1,000 photos. Here are just a few highlights and some of my favorites. Enjoy!

Philadelphia Skylines
So I convinced my friend Mike Morris @designsophy to let me blog about these pictures he took of his hometown of Philadelphia. They are completely inspiring and the incredible skylines take me back to a time when I fell in love with my husband in NYC. (Unbeknown to me — though I think everyone else knew before I did.) I was, ironically, also there on a business trip/cocktail party for Pneuma Books (owned by the awesome Brian Taylor) with Mike, who was my senior designer at the time.
Mike & Brian hired me right out of college after interning for them for a while. They pretty much taught me everything I know about good design and typography. Mike was shocked to know I didn't know what greeking was. I was shocked there was something called greeking. More like geeking.
They showed me the true elegance of the em dash and the importance of kerning.
Hard to believe it's been 10 years.
So, without further adieu — check these out. Nice work, Mikey.
