Lilli Carré is a Chicago-based artist who works in illustration, animation and comics. I came across her work many years ago after reading her comic book The Lagoon – which I wholeheartedly recommend! I particularly like these book covers she did recently for The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn published by Penguin Classics and Very Good, Jeeves! for W.W. Norton & Co. Be sure to stop be her site to check out her portfolio, and buy some of her fantastic books!  Besides The Lagoon, I would recommend her comic Nine Ways to Disappear.

There is a really great interview with Lille Carré on The Comics Reporter.

Glasgow studio O Street have a new site with a smattering of new projects. There’s some particularly strong branding work on show,
one of the more noteworthy examples being the new identity for the Scottish National Portrait Gallery. The identity was launched to coincide with the major refurbishment of the Edinburgh gallery’s landmark building, which re-opened to the public on 1 December. Focusing on the word ‘Portrait’, the typographic mark can change its character to reflect the wide range of the art and colourful personalities that the collection presents. Great example of a simple, well executed and flexible concept. It seems there’s plenty more where that came from too.

What better way to start your Friday morning than checking out what some of NY’s finest, 2×4, have been up to lately. Have been massive fans of the studio for many a year, and so glad they’ve finally got a site that shows off their stunning work in all it’s true glory.

The man I never thought would get his website online has finally launched today. There are many a designer who try and learn the craft of minimal graphic illustration but none I would consider even close to this man. Those who know him have seen the monolithic amount of work he has produced which isn’t available to see on the internet. Rob Bailey is certainly someone to be celebrated as some what of a master of this art.

We’ve got an exciting series of articles planned for you that will document what it means to launch a new gallery & studio in collaboration with The International Picture House. Over the next month fellow FFF contributor Chris Gray will keep us updated on his latest project, which should be a great insight for anyone thinking of setting up their own studio or gallery.

Their goal is to source, commission or construct everything required from independent traders & craftsman. With updates every couple of days we’ll follow Chris and his colleagues towards the launch of a new creative space.

There are also a couple of workplaces available if you’re on the lookout for one!
