Did You See the Words?

I usually use this blog to talk about my own artwork, but I'd like to talk about some other artists and designers whose work I am excited about as well. Today's artist is Yulia Brodskaya, who's getting a lot of web-press for her beautiful and meticulous word-crafting (out of paper!). Thanks to the folks at Wooster Collective for showcasing her work. I like the way Yulia plays with negative space in her embellishments of simple words and phrases. It's old fashioned illuminated text re-wrought for the modern design world.

Songs:
