Artsy Fartsy: Toronto's Flag

October 24, 2016

One of my fav episodes of 99% Invisible is about Flag Design and well according to this episode Toronto has a great flag. I would have to agree; It's a damn good looking flag. The fact that Toronto's has a well-designed flag makes me a proud Torontonian. Check out both Toronto's flag and 99% Invisibles Flag episode below.

A Part of Our History

April 26, 2015

Fellow artists and designers, checkout this amazing part of our history. During WW2 the Ghost Army (made up of artists & designers) used design, installation pieces and sound to deceive the German Army. Fashion designer Bill Blass, Color Field artist Ellsworth Kelly, Wild Life artist Arthur B. Singer and fashion & music photographer Art Kane were all apart of this tactical deception unit

Finally got to take my #vegan desert boots from @clarksoriginals  for a spin! Very comfy, however since they are mens they fit differently than women’s shoes.
