Mike McQuade | MCQ

One of my main cohorts, Mike McQuade, just launched his new site and it’s loaded with a grip of incredible new work. Originally from Philadelphia and currently working as an art director at Energy BBDO in Chicago, Mike considers himself an artist, designer, and illustrator. I’ve always admired his drawing skills and hand-lettering, and it’s great to see these talents crossing over into his advertising work for big brands. Mike and I formed National Record Holders a few years ago, and although we haven’t done much with it lately, we are currently working together on a poster for The Infantree’s Help Haiti Heal poster project, as well as plotting our next move with NRH. Stay tuned.

The Skullz Press

I’m a big fan of Mike Giant | Rebel8, rad to see him open up shop – bringing back The Skullz Press after five years. Open every Saturday from 11am to 7pm.  Every first Friday of the month will be an opening to debut new original artworks and limited edition printed goods.

Damien Correll

I’ve followed Damien for years now and have always been motivated by his creativity and productivity. He’s left a solid trail of work behind him for clients like Urban Outfitters, Swindle, and Zoo York, and continues to blaze trails with Rad Mountain. Check out his recent interview with XLR8R:

I’ve always been impressed with the uniqueness of Steve Harrington’s work.
He just added some new pieces and several new sections to dig on, so have a look.
