monday talent (a bit earlier than usual)

Well, depending where you are, Monday has already begun! I'm half an hour in, and seeing as I missed a spot last week (quel suprise), I thought I'd make an extra special effort this week and be early.

This week's spot belongs to Canadian design duo Coe & Waito, that's Alissa & Carly respectively. Their partnership began whilst studying Industrial Design at Ontario College of Art & Design. Here are a selection of their beautiful porcelain pieces, which they refer to as 'quiet objects'... ssshhhh






Sadly they no longer focus on making their porcelain pieces as they are concentrating mainly on their design consultancy. But they are still taking orders until 1 April! Check details via their 'purchasing' section!

monday talent (on a wednesday)

Hem, well I think I shouldn't really be restricting myself to a day if I can't keep it up, should I. Again, I'm late off the mark, but I am really super busy (which I shall explain in another post). Anyway, this week is the turn of Noisedup. Nothing to say except some things sometimes make me say 'holy wow'!!!

There's lots more styles to choose from... all very reasonably priced. She does lovely bags and postcards too.

Today is Monday!! Which means I have more talent to show you. And it's a double whammy this week as I somehow missed last week... wasn't paying attention!

First let me present Australian illustrator extraordinaire, Catherine Campbell. Her impressive and beautiful work has been extensively published and her client list includes Vans, Frankie Magazine and Billabong.




Her work is available to buy from her shop, 'My Folk Lover'.

Next up is Mark Weaver, a hugely talented designer and illustrator who has big name clients clamouring for his retro style including The New York Times, American Airlines and Wired Magazine.




His gorgeous silk-screen prints are available here.

OK let's start a new regular post for the new year. It's called, you've guessed it, 'Monday Talent'! I'm so in awe of all the wonderousness that there is out there that I want to expose you to some of it. My very first bit of 'Monday Talent' is a certain Andrea Joseph. I used to think I was pretty nifty with a pencil. Sadly I haven't picked one up in years but this lady has inspired me to put lead (or ballpoint) to paper yet again. Not that I could do anything on this scale. Her work is stunning, mind-blowingly, obsessively detailed stuff. Just get a load of this.





Not only is she super-talented and self-taught (which I love), but she is a witty one too. Check out her blog and shop. I particularly love her little molezines.
