Last week I met with the guys from Inksie and I feel I should mention them. Inksie is a new brand based out of Portland that is currently taking shape as an excellent “Journal of Design & Culture”. The site features intelligent writing and original content concerning all of things I am interested in. They are growing at a rapid rate and there’s a good chance the site will feature a contribution or two by yours truly, so you should probably pay attention. And note: their fantastic typographic logo was designed by Portland’s own Color Cubic, whose work is definitely worth digging.
Also: Have you ever seen something that is so visually inspiring that you just want to eat it? I mean physically ingest it so it becomes a part of you and brings you one step closer to being an unstoppable creative juggernaut? I may be insane, but that’s how I feel when I look at the illustration work of Alex Trochut.

John,
Thanks for the ‘zup with Inksie. Bookmarked and followed. And nice goddamn site. And nice goddamn work. And a store? Goddamn. Saw your boxer poster at C4D and was wondering whose it was.
Damn.
