"This week’s graphic design inspiration highlights the work of Christina Hess and her Animals From History illustration series. Christina studied illustration at the University of the Arts and since then, has worked as an illustrator and designer. She likes to draw and paint ornate things, which meant eventually she would have stumbled on the Animals from History idea displayed below and we’re glad that she did."

"Director and motion graphics designer Ninian Doff reveals how to get on with your job if you're a freelancer. How to avoid procrasination? In many ways, I think procrastination is an important part of the initial creative process. I have all my best ideas whilst riding my bike, so I often justify cycling to get a coffee as part of working."

“A Moment’s Reflection” by Cody William Smith feels like a gateway to the most beautiful places that are not down in any maps. Using a round mirror, he sets up, a little bit buried on different areas like the sand, dirt… various settings.

"Israeli sculptress Nirit Levav Packer creates amazingly realistic dog sculptures out of bicycle parts.
Using bicycle chains, she fashions remarkably detailed sculptures of dog breeds such as Yorkshire Terriers, Beagles, Afghan Hounds, and Dalmatians that are just as cute and cuddly as their real life counterparts."

"Searching for design inspiration takes a lot of time if you browse galleries because you will not find only high quality design works, but also some that are simply average, or below. Having a few sites who create articles by curating the design galleries is a must. You will save time that you can use to create that beautiful design your client wants."

"Using her two sons (Yaroslav and Vanya) and their dear animals as her photography project, Elena Shumilova brings out magic in every little moment. Whether its one of her sons hugging their lovable dog or both of her little boys spending time together, she makes the most special shots from the ordinary scenes. Each piece of image tells an intimate story of being young, being a child… the innocence and purity."

"Ideas and Thoughts is a charming little sketchbook created by Dutch multi-disciplinary artist Helmut Smits that is meant to provide a dose of inspiration to creatives. It contains nuggets of wisdom such as “Idea for a show: Fill the holes in the wall from the previous exhibition with plaster mixed with different pigment colors. This is now the exhibition.”
