You need to see this... - Corey Godbey

On the subject of illustation, Corey Godbey pretty much blows my mind.

When I stumbled across the Portland Studios websites two years ago, I also found Corey's blog "Light Night Rains". If you use some sort of blog reader, please start following Corey. He does an incredible job walking his readers through step by step of his creative process.

Corey's latest project is called "Terrible Yellow Eyes, a blog solely dedicated to the celebration of the Children's book "Where the Wild Things Are">. Every Friday, a list of incredible illustrators post their own tribute to the book.

Make sure to check out Corey, and tell him I sent you!

You need to see this... - Anna Bond

Thursday is for recommended reading and viewing. Basically a day for me to show off some people I think should be noticed. Let's start with Anna Bond over at Rifle - Blog.

I don't recall exactly how I found Anna's site, but I'm very very very glad I did. Although her blog has nothing to do with firearms, it contains plenty of bang (WORDPLAY!).

Her design has an old, clean, playful feeling that is so refreshing! As you read her blog, you'll see this comes from her incredible appreciation for classic storybook illustrations, and an overall sense of what is lasting.
