Sophie Blackall: Missed Connections by Karen Day
Chance encounters, momentary glimmers of hope for a new friend or lover—Sophie Blackall's blog Missed Connections illustrates the random interactions had by strangers and their quest to reconnect via Craisglist New York City.
Originally an advice columnist, the Australian-born illustrator is seemingly the perfect talent for such a project, combining her thoughtful nature with her superlative drawing skills to create an endearing and hopeful blog.
Check out Missed Connections, or for more of Sophie Blackall's work, have a look at her website.
