Leif Parsons by Josh Rubin
Leif Parsons is a Canadian-American designer living in NYC. He uses his own photography and illustration in his work to create a fun, fresh aesthetic. His quirky sense of humor adds an intelligent levity. My favorite piece in his portfolio is the Identity Project, which is an introspection of the Leif Parsons brand / identity.

Anthony Newman: Dangerous Diary
Australian photographer and designer Anthony Newman has been exploring collage art with his latest series of works: "Originally started from a few mixed media paintings, the Dangerous Diary was born out of my need to explore collage. I was also really taken by the fact that new artwork could be created by found, and usually discarded, objects in my environment—bill posters, flyers, stuff left...
