I’m a fan of Jessica Hagy’s Indexed blog where she utilizes Venn diagrams, graphs and charts to put forth her ideas, thereby visualizing her thoughts and bringing them to life in the simplest manner.
Talk about illustrating a point, eh?
Read more about her and her process at The 99 Percent (this is one of my recent favourite sites), see an animation that was spurred by her idea, and also here’s her book, a postcard book, and also a reporter notebook to pad your bookshelf.
I love stories, and I love a good storyteller. In the case of Flor Panichelli’s finger puppets, it’s easy to see how one can almost imagine the rest of the scene unfolding. Her beautiful little puppets are made of paper, and is also the name of her Etsy shop, Pelpa — which means “paper” in Lunfardo, the dialect of Buenos Aires.

UPDATE: Flor has moved into a new shop called Sweet Bestiary and she’ll be posting regular updates on her new blog as well!
Ty Wilkins is an illustrator and graphic designer who lives in Wichita, Kansas, and while I forgot where I initially found his lovely animals, I still marvel at how beautifully simple they are. I can almost see them made into pretty logos.
Ty is also a typography man, and is the founder and editor of Type Theory, a journal of contemporary typography featuring news, views, reviews and interviews.
