A wild post appears after two weeks of silence! 😱 A wild post appears after two weeks of silence! 😱

...with some resource recommendations. 😎 

I have not, actually, been on vacation when I was gone - I was working. A LOT. And since no designer's work is complete without the support of other creators, I wanted to share with you some stuff that I've been enjoying lately. I kind of hope to make it a monthly thing. 

In this edition:
🔹️ brushes by @jingsketch 
🔹️ the Live ToC Indesign script
🔹️ face-painting course by @lucaspeinador 
🔹️📚 "Why Fonts Matter" by Sarah Hyndman. 

Enjoy! 🤩
