Every once in awhile, a product design challenge comes along that we just can’t resist jumping on, even if it’s quite a departure from the majority of our past work. We tend to view these scenarios as good opportunities to explore just what’s possible in a new medium, and to further hone and stress-test our philosophies on good product design that stands the test of time—whether it’s built with code, atoms or both.

Sixteen years ago this week, I was designing my wedding invitations. The invitations were set in my typefaces, and printed by a friend who runs a letterpress shop in Berkeley, and the enclosing envelopes were hand-addressed by a calligrapher. Each kind of letterform served a different purpose: the type was dignified, and the calligraphy was personal.

Illustrator Joe Ciardello is well known for his excellent series of drawings of jazz musicians. My favorite is this marvelous depiction of James Oscar Smith, who worked magic on the electric organ. Ciardiello's picture is an art form somewhere between drawing and music. Vesalius would not recognize the bones in those hands, but their fluidity perfectly captures Smith's music.

So you might have noticed I've been taking some huge leaps in terms of my on-screen presence since my Freelancer of the Year win with IPSE last year. Seriously, if you'd asked me a few years ago how comfortable I'd be with half of the promos and panels I've been doing over the past few months I would've had a reaction-gif-worthy look of horror on my face.

From the perspective of a cartoonist: If a lightning bolt's trousers came unbuckled and it slipped on a banana peel, it would look like George Herriman's marvelous, loopy version. Plus, his black cloud and raindrops put Robert Motherwell to shame. From the perspective of a graphic designer: This brilliant design is not only visually powerful but substantively strong as well: for a column about "judgement day" it effectively conveys the crack of doom.

This week the great Mort Drucker is being inducted into the Society of Illustrators Hall of Fame. There will be a dinner and a reception at the Society in New York on June 22, 2017-- about 25 years late, as far as I'm concerned, but I'm still glad to see the 88 year old artist recognized that way. At the same time, I'm pleased to announce that the new issue of Illustrators Quarterly , a superb international journal of illustration art, features a cover story (written by yours truly) about Drucke

I don't mind telling you that I'm planning on voting Labour - hence my red dress (Valentino darling) I know everyone says Jeremy looks like a geography teacher but really that was one of my favourite subject's at school (I do love to travel darlings) and anyway I like what he stands for.
