*** chalk art ***

I remember back in the day, approximately around my 15th life year, I was a chalk-board "artist" for some local pubs- drawing the signs for the drink-specials on a weekly basis.  It was a fantastic 'profession', I'd love to get back into it these days- especially since my style has most definitely matured from my childish scribbles back then.  But with the advances of technology, do people even still use chalk board advertising? I sure hope so...

I recently stumbled upon the work of Dana Tanamachi (a graphic designer and chalk letterer from New York).  This gem of a chalkboard artist is most definitely nothing short of an inspiration. So lovely.
