Warm blanket and two cats...

After days of tracing To he, today I finally got sometimes to chill with my buddies. Despite the dreadfully wet weather, we curled up inside our cozy corner, ranting about signs, traits, people and our little happy/worrisome lives.

And after a long rainy day, there's nothing as sweet as dim warm lights, jazz, creamy liquor and the soft purring of your two lovely cats. It's quite funny there are days when you just feel better than the others, without any reason. Like today, tonight, I think I am the happiest person in the world.

Just want to share with you guys an amazing artist - Dana Tanamachi. She's a chalk letterer - a type of Typographer who specializes on chalk. At first glance, they look nice and all - but as for an art student like me, I re-drew one of her artworks and there lies a dozen of typeface choices and the way she caters a handful of information in one single board... it's just amazing. I know the flag style with vintage fonts like this is getting more and more trendy which is quite sad, but the good stuff always stand out themselves. Be sure to check out her time-lapse videos too!
