Reading Rainbow with Levar Burton returns as an app:

"I come from a family of teachers, and when I was offered the opportunity to host Reading Rainbow in 1983, I recognized immediately the value in using technology to inspire kids to read," said Burton. "Reading will never go out of style, but the tools used for learning are changing. I am excited to bring Reading Rainbow back so that parents who watched the show can now share that same feel-good experience with their own children but on a platform that resonates with today's digital kids."
The Sketchbook of Susan Kare
Kare’s work gave the Mac a visual lexicon that was universally inviting and intuitive. Instead of thinking of each image as a tiny illustration of a real object, she aimed to design icons that were as instantly comprehensible as traffic signs.
This weekend I'm moving the studio to the Arts at the Armory building in Somerville, MA. It's a community art center that hosts a wide range of visual, music, theater and dance events. There are a number of working artists and organizations housed within the armory, as well as a cafe and large performance hall. I'm thrilled to be getting the studio set up and enagaging with the rich community of people who work and visit there.

I was thinking about the white squirrel we see in our neighborhood from time to time. This was a sketch to test some custom photoshop brushes made from scans of wax crayon on paper.

In the summer months a lot of my work happens from the afternoon into the evening.
