Happy Friday Y’all!

Yay.
Not only is it Friday, but I had an excellent first week back–not sick and loving it. What’s a better way to celebrate Friday than with an illustrated diary excerpt from Susan Sontag?! I love Susan Sontag and San Francisco illustrator Wendy MacNaughton nails it. Found it on brainpickings and I’m hoping it’s the first of a series…
Macnaughton also did this:
LOVE. Love her. Check out her etsy, her website, and her blog.

I am lucky enough to be constantly surrounded by children’s books in my new job. Children’s book illustrations are probably on my top ten list of things I generally LOVE LOVE LOVE.
I love that I will get to consistently read new books and see many books that I have missed since being young enough to sit in a library and look for hours.
How beautiful are these illustrations from Allen Say’s excellent picture book, Grandfather’s Journey, Caldecott Medal winner for 1993.

Love this tumblr from Robert A. Alejandro, The Sketching Backpacker. Moleskine sketch book, watercolors, and travel–perfect!
I’ve been itching to take a trip lately and these aren’t helping!

Ilustrator John Woo has cleverly combined the world of high fashion illustration with Comic Con sensibilities. So fun!
high fashion + Star Wars + beautiful fashion illustration = me totally geeking out.
Check out his etsy shop here. I’m thinking I know what to get @alexporter82 for his birthday…
