If you’re bored of the usual magazines and reading materials available from your local newsagents or bookshops then why not check out something a little more indie. The Wizard’s Hat (pictured top) is a bi-monthly zine, celebrating the obsessive art of doodling. Issue 02 is now out and features the brilliant Mike Perry and the doodle-master Jon Burgerman, as well as loads of others. And if you’re in the LA area then you should try grab a copy of No Moda (pictured bottom), which the good guys at 100TIFICO have just launched.

This week we’ve been inspired by a number of screenprints, ready to brighten the walls of anyone’s studio, sunhouse or shed.
Jon Burgerman took part in a show called Blisters On My Fingers (Beatles reference?), for which he produced this 2-colour print. You can still grab one of the 20 or so copies left from Print Club.
Ben The Illustrator also dropped us a line to let us know about his World Lovin’ Posters. All you eco-friendly designers out there will love these as they’re printed on FSC certified paper and only use vegetable inks. Each print is limited to a run of 100 as well.
And if you’re still looking for more screen-print inspiration then check out Boxbird, who launched last month. They have a great variety of silkscreen and Giclée prints and asked Stephen to put something together for them, which you can see here.
Other news this week:
Blind Drawings, Crayonlegs and TBFH
Kev Speck dropped us a line telling us about a project he’s working on to keep his creative juices flowing - Blind Drawings… The Boy Fitz Hammond has a new tee up on Threadless called Small Mammal Flying Machine… and we were introduced to a new illustration treat, Crayonlegs (check out their Literal Facial Hair illustrations… Goatee anyone?).

If you don’t already know, Tado, Jon Burgerman and iLoveDust have teamed up for a very special range of 8″ Dunnys… the 3 Bears! We braved the heat and the Manchester one-way system to meet the guys at their signing event at the Richard Goodall Gallery. It was hot, hot, hot but well worth it… and above is a snap of us with the guys. The Dunnys look great and you can find out more about them on the 3 Bears Blog. And if you’re feeling particular flush… you can buy ‘em straight from the KidRobot US store.
