Toronto Craft Alert

This may be old news to those of you tapped in to the illustration/sexy advertising world (these guys have been going since 1995), but holy geez, has Art Deparment got some incredible illustrator portfolios on their site.  This has little to do with Toronto, aside from the inclusion of our very own Virginia Johnson – image above – on their roster of illustrators, but I had to share this find with you!  Here are a handful of my favourite images – definitely inspiring for future textile pattern design & screenprinting projects.
