I juste stumbled upon M.JPT’s work, and all I can say is: awesome.

In his own words:
“This is an hommage (six months in), an attempt to create cover art for every great magazine I own (+ a few I wish I owned). It’s never a straight crib and it’s not about perfection, the source magazines are simply a playground for my imagination…

Covering covers lets me combine some of my favourite things; portraiture, pencil sketching, typography, graphic design, and ideas – there’s usually one in there somewhere.

The occasional photos illustrate the Covers process: I draw A3 & A4 sections which I sometimes collage or retouch in Photoshop.”

A sure way to be creative and demonstrate high skills both in drawing and composition. If you wanna see more go to his Flickr page or his blog. Enjoy!

The hard days at work.

sometimes it feels like this
This can apply to a situation I’m confronting right now at work. The worst part is: I don’t give a damn. Because I did my best and explained my point of view. Am I becoming a detached monster?
Thanks ProfessionalWidow :)

Mhhhh! Time of the year for a new calendar, isn’t it.
What about this beautifully illustrated one, printed on recycled paper? I think I’ll get tempted.
