HA. Surfing the net, I stumbled on Nick Dewar's incredible simplicity print (man, I love typography!) before visiting his site to view a wealth of amazing paintings, digital illustrations, one-of-a-kind t-shirts, and edgy wit. (You 've likely seen his illustration for the book cover of The Devil Wears Prada.)

This Southern Cal based artist was born in Scotland, grew up on the East Coast, attended art school in Glasgow, lived in Prague, London, New York, and on a sheep farm in Cumbria. For reals.

Here’s how the cheeky artist describes his craft: “My work has appeared in magazines, on billboards, in books and on the wall next to the telephone. Illustration has been my sole occupation since leaving art school over 15 years ago and indeed it is doubtful that I could actually hold down a proper job if asked.”

May I just say bravo on your amazing work, and we will all appreciate it if you never choose to hold down a 'proper' job, Nick.
