Inspiration Sunday - Instagram Edition

This week's inspiration is all about TYPE. It's found everywhere - on the huge billboards that fill Times Square, in the films/television we watch and is the bones of every magazine/blog/newspaper that's published. The world be a terribly boring place without the talented designers out there that are creating beautiful fonts and typography for all of us to enjoy. Here are some of the insanely inspiring Instagram accounts that I've been following lately:

Birds

I like sketching birds whenever I can. These were drawn while watching a program on NatGeo about the different species and their migration patterns. This time around I tried using a bigger sketchpad with broader strokes.

There's a reason I love netflix. This movie happens to be an example of that. My dad and I are constantly adding on these little-known, independant films to our queue in hopes of finding a gem every so often. We got lucky with this one. The colors and cinematography are PHENOMENAL! Lee Pace (Pushing Daisies) does a wonderful job and the young girl that stars with him, Catinca Untaru, really makes you smile.





I bought this movie awhile back on a whim, just because I absolutely loved the cover. (Which kind of gives off a "Flight of the Conchords" look...) Yesterday, while I was dog-sitting, I decided to watch it again completely forgetting how much I loved it! It's got all the key ingredients that I enjoy in a film.
