Boss Not Boss

So guys, looks like this is the end. I am transferring all of my brain powers to a different blog. It's okay, don't cry! I've cried enough for the both of us... But, BossNotBoss.com needs my help! Also, I know when a good thing has run its course. Boss Not Boss, originally created by Christopher Martin & Hamilton Boyce (and now joined by me), is an all-creative, all-inspiring, all-crazy blog that posts things you can't see anywhere else! Some cool things you can find on it are: personal interviews with local artist of all kinds, impressive work from people in many different creative fields, good new music finds, awesome personal projects from the authors, etc., etc.. It is definitely the next up and coming blog to follow. Trust me. However, just in case anyone needs to reference the link library or any previous post on this blog, I will keep it up. And I will probably keep adding to it throughout the years as a way to keep my thoughts organized. Okay, so this is goodbye... but be sure to follow on BossNotBoss.com!

Dracula Type

Mondo
These guys make screen printing suck their dicks. Chris just sent me a link to this poster and I am kind of obsessed with these guys. Ever since I saw their Star Wars movie posters, I was in love.

Artist Type

Raymond Lemstra
It's awesome when visual artists add type to their pieces because it almost always looks fucking dope. I want huge prints of those first two posters. Check out Lemstra's site for lots of other cool drawings.

My work has been featured on the front page! Awesome. I always go to Behance's Type Site to find inspiration for blog posts on good typography.

German Type

MAGMA
Those Germans really do have the best taste in type. I'm just always a sucker for transparent color blocks, overlapped type, and Courier New.

Ribbon Type

Sean Freeman
I just love this poster.

December 2010 Wallpaper!

Download here!
Here's the new wallpaper. Late as always, but festive as ever! It's the last month of the year, so I'll have to figure out what next year's theme will be... any suggestions? Maybe I'll get dirty and do all hand drawn type! That would be fun.

Skate Type

Dan Cassaro
I don't know why I'm calling this "skate type". It isn't really, but I guess it just reminds me of it. I usually hate typical skate type. It's so trendy and urban. But this stuff is solid. I love that cover he did for Shipwrecks of the Modern Age!

The Loved One

TLO
Hannah and Landon, one of my favorite lifestyle blogs just launched a new vintage lingerie project! Beautiful. I want everything. And their logo is very cute also.

Clean Type//Simple Shapes

Supply Ltd
Good simple design from these guys. Their website is also very interesting. Beautiful concept and design, but not very intuitive.
Still, I like it.
