Today I came about the works of Rachel Caldwell. She is a graphic designer and illustrator from Philadelphia, PA. From what I can tell on her blog "Thirsty Fly" is that she does great work and she has a good sense of humor. I chose some of her works to showcase that were minimal yet eye catching. My favorites out of her works is the "Wisdom of the Nines" which shows different styles of owls and one of them is like "Yo". To me that funny and I think Owls are cool creatures. If you get a chance check out more of her work on her blog.

I was just trying to kill some time at work as I sometimes do and I stumbled upon a blog called Change The Thought. Change the Thought was founded in 2002. It was originally created to harbor the personal creative work of artist and designer Christopher Cox. Although the site does still harbor Christopher’s body of work it has since grown into a usable archive of creative inspiration for the online art and design community. I wanted to show some of the print work that was done by Christoper Cox because his style is one that I enjoy and his work is done very well.
