Robert “Ed” Smylie, the NASA official who saved the Apollo 13 crew in 1970, has died at 95. He cobbled together an apparatus made of cardboard, plastic bags and duct tape after an explosion crippled the spacecraft as it sped toward the moon.

Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! I'm Shauna Lynn & I love creating whimsical little worlds! I'm available for new projects and would love to work on some fun sports themed (ballet, figure skating, gymnastics??) books at some point!

Last day of classes for the semester. Finals are next week, then grading and I am done for the summer.

Hopefully, next year I will be a full-time professor instead of a part-time one. Waiting to hear back from my last interview.

I’m still alive! Just been busy job hunting, grading stuff, going to Creative South, etc.

I’m in Disneyland with my family and blissfully ignorant to what is going on in the real world. Please respect this magical time.

Taking a break from the endless doomscrolling on the other apps for a refresher of just design & art related content over here. Thanks for protecting my sanity. My anxiety was in overdrive today.

Trying to get motivated to work on a design research presentation, but it's a snow day here in South Alabama, which is making it really hard.

I'm launching a new initiative today for small businesses and I could use your help spreading the word. Small businesses everywhere are struggling and in need of our support so we're doing our part by donating a free brand overhaul to one small business every month...

Apparently, I am having feminine urges.
the feminine urge to travel to beautiful cities, visit old museums and second hand bookstores, read books in cafes, drink coffee and eat my weight in pastries.

I am a big fan of the A Book Apart books and was sad to learn about them shutting down. I am excited to see some of the authors giving away their books now. I am looking forward to reading this one.

New Year's eve in rural Alabama means I get to play is it fireworks or gunshots. Bonus rounds go to the neighbors who feel fireworks should rival artillery fire. #happynewyear

Everyday carry friends, what is a good, affordable, sturdy pen that I can shove in my back pocket with my Field Notes & wallet and not worry about it breaking when I sit down?

It wouldn't be the holiday season without at least one kid getting sick. 🤧

Just popping in to say happy holidays before crawling back into my cave for a few days to recharge post-Christmas festivities. #happyholidays #happyhanukkah #merrychristmas

the secret to being a great artist or designer is — there is no secret to being a great artist or designer:

work hard.
think a lot.
try new things.
be actively curious.
make stuff.
ask questions.
be a good human.

fyi: every living artist or designer you admire has an email address, and absolutely none of them will be irritated that you sent them a quick note about how much you enjoy their work.

(not to "connect." not to "pick their brain." just to tell them you love what they do.) #art #design
