HAIR DO { nosideup }

MOVE OVER MUSTACHES.
STEP ASIDE, BEARDS.
YOUR DAY HAS COME AND GONE.

There. Now that's out of my system....ahem.

Well, well...what do we have here?  I have to say I'm absolutely keen, keen, keen on these gorgeous, hairy pieces by Oxford-based designer/illustrator Maria Gil Ulldemolins, otherwise known as Nosideup on Etsy.

Seriously, all she has to do is create a few more 'styles' of this Hairy Letterhead, wrap it in a gorgeous, traditional band and beautiful stationers' box, and take it over to Barney's, and she'll be in the paper biz.

Really, there's just something I love about this pen and ink, observational, Serious Comix-meets-Shel-Silversteinesque work, which she puts her own, fun spin on using cropping, white space, a focus on detail, and texture on the page. Absolutely loving the concept of the backs of people's heads being as....ok, even *more* interesting than their fronts.

Enjoy your weekend all. And once again, thanks for putting up with me this week on HeySusy*. I love ya, I do! xx s
